Cumberland, GA - 

Corey J, the 12-year-old rapper who once appeared on Ellen, was arrested at a Georgia mall on October 6. In video footage posted on Corey’s Instagram account earlier this week, a Cobb County officer grabs Corey by the arm and threatens to take him to a youth detention center for allegedly selling CDs.

As his aunt looks on and continues to film, all hell breaks loose when Corey — who also goes by Lil C-Note — tries to remove his arm from the officer’s tight grip. Consequently, both Corey and his aunt were arrested for felony obstruction, misdemeanor obstruction, criminal trespass and disorderly conduct, according to 11 Alive.
