Travis Scott Pleads Not Guilty To Inciting A Riot At His Arkansas Show

Travis Scott has pleaded not guilty after he was arrested and charged last week for inciting a riot, endangering the welfare of a minor and disorderly conduct. This happened after he invited fans on stage during his Arkansas show.

According to the Associated Press, Arkansas police say the “Goosebumps,” rapper “encouraged people to rush the stage,” which left multiple people injured, according to investigators.

A concert security employee and a police officer were reportedly among those that were injured.

Travis Scott’s lawyer, Drew Ledbetter, said to the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, that Scott “only intended to put on a good show.” Ledbetter says Scott “waived his arraignment and pleaded not guilty to the charges.”

According to the AP, an attorney for the city said that she could not comment on the pending case.

Nonetheless, Travis Scott has turned this situation into a money-making opportunity by selling t-shirts with his mugshot on them, with the words, “Free The Rage,” printed on the back. However, the shirts were only made available for 48 hours.
