Rapper Offset has been detained for allegedly ‘waving guns at people’ while driving through a Trump rally in Los Angeles. 

The 28-year-old recorded himself being pulled over by police in Beverly Hills on Saturday afternoon.  

In a video shared to his Instagram Live, the rapper refused to step out of his car while being questioned by cops – one of whom had a weapon drawn.  

That officer told Offset there were reports he had been ‘waving guns at people’ as he drove through the area. He replied that Trump supporters had hit his car with a flag.  

The Los Angeles Police Department has not responded to a request for comment.  

The rapper’s wife, Cardi B, was also spotted on the scene in videos captured by bystanders. 

TMZ reports that her cousin, Marcelo Almanzar, was arrested in connection to the incident. He was allegedly in possession of a loaded firearm.

During the livestream video, Offset can be heard telling officers: ‘I’m a f**king celebrity, do you know who I am? I’m Offset from [hip-hop trio] Migos’.

He continues: ‘You told me to put my hands up, I’m not doing that. There’s 25,000 people [watching] on my livestream. You’re gonna get sued publicly.’

Another of the cops subsequently attempts to reach into Offset’s car and open the door from the inside. 

‘You can’t do that! It’s not legal!’ the star snaps. 

I’m gonna sue the s**t outta you. Ya’ll know who I am?’ he asks the officers. 

The stream ends after the officer opens the door and Offset steps out. 

Separate video showed him being placed into handcuffs as a crowd of Trump supporters look on.
