Polo G has landed in hot water as authorities have raided his home in Southern California and put him in cuffs soon after.
On Wednesday (August 23), TMZ obtained footage of the Chicago rapper’s home in Los Angeles with police vehicles parked outside. Law enforcement entered his house and led several people away in handcuffs.

Among those who were restrained by the cops and taken into custody was Polo G himself. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the search warrant was executed in relation to a robbery. A rep for the artist told the outlet “We are hopeful the LAPD will handle this matter with tact and transparency.”

Back in June 2021, Polo G was arrested in Miami following a release party for his Hall of Fame album. He was hit with several charges, including battery against a police officer, but bodycam footage from the incident that surfaced last year showed what exactly went down.
At the time, it was alleged that Polo attacked a cop during a traffic stop, leaving the officer with abrasions to the face and a swollen right cheek after being hit with multiple punches and elbow strikes to the head. However, the bodycam footage showed him using his words more than his fists.
In the clips shared online, he sounded visibly annoyed in the back seat of the police cruiser as he tried to get the attention of the cops. One of the officers asked him to stop, which led the rapper to call him “broke” and question his decision to join law enforcement.
“You broke as hell!” Polo yelled. “I’m just sayin’, do you got $10,000 in your bank account right now? ‘Cause if you die right now, what could you give your kids? If you die right now, what could you give the lady that you in bed with? What could you give to your mama? Have you ever bought yo mama anything? Did you buy yo mama a car? Did you buy yo mama a house? I did that.”

The officer replied, “Good for you, bro. I’m glad you did that… I would love to do that one day,” prompting Polo to clap back, “You would love to do it, but you never will.”
In another video showing him sitting inside a precinct receiving medical attention, the rapper continued to go off on the cops, claiming he blacked out after getting roughed up by them. The officers fired back, calling him a liar and claiming the rapper was kicking the doors of the cruiser.

Polo G’s mother and manager, Stacia Mac, alleged police racially profiled her son at the time.
Fortunately for him, the case was thrown out in April once he completed court-ordered anger management classes.
