Master P‘s son Hercy Miller has been arrested and accused of stealing refrigerators alongside two of his Southern Utah University Thunderbirds teammates.
According to a report from KSL News, 24-year-old Miller along with teammates Brock Felder and Peter Dadson Jr. were arrested on one count of theft on November 27. The men are accused of stealing two $1,500 refrigerators from the loading dock of their campus bookstore.
Security footage captured them loading the fridges into their cars earlier that month, and police later observed the appliances in their respective apartments.
P’s son and Dadson Jr. told police they thought the refrigerators were trash because they’d been on the loading dock for “almost a month.”
