Rapper Blueface Arrested in Las Vegas – Rapper Blueface has encountered fresh legal problems after being arrested once again in Las Vegas. Johnathan Jamall Porter, known by his stage name Blueface, was previously apprehended in November 2022 by the Las Vegas Metro Police.
He faced charges of attempted murder and several other offenses but was subsequently released on $50,000 bail, according to KLAS-TV. While arriving at a Las Vegas courthouse for a preliminary hearing regarding those charges, Blueface was arrested by the police on a distinct accusation of robbery, as confirmed by his attorneys Lisa Rasmussen and Kristina Wildeveld to the media outlet.
“We do not have any information about the new case but we are told that this involves taking a cell phone from a woman at the Palms casino,” they told KLAS-TV. “We look forward to defending him in court in both of these cases.”

According to court records, a robbery report was filed on Wednesday, but no additional details about the case were provided. As per a report from the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Blueface has not yet been formally charged in relation to the recent arrest.
On October 8, 2022, the rapper known for the song “Thotiana,” who is 26 years old, allegedly shot a man. This incident resulted in his booking on charges of attempted murder, use of a deadly weapon, and discharging a gun into an occupied structure, vehicle, or craft on November 15, as stated in a police report.
Furthermore, according to the report, he was also charged with the operation of an unregistered vehicle, trailer, or semi. In November, Wack 100, Blueface’s manager, informed Rolling Stone that Blueface’s then-girlfriend, Chrisean Rock, was also present at the time of the arrest.
Footage obtained by TMZ captures the incident, showing Blueface seated on a bench against a building, accompanied by Rock. A plainclothes officer approaches him and forcefully pushes him against a wall. Subsequently, additional officers arrive and assist in bringing Blueface to the ground.
