Pop Smoke was reportedly arrested this morning on a federal charge for interstate transport of a stolen motor vehicle. According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the Brooklyn-bred drill rapper is accused of transporting a stolen 2019 Rolls Royce Wraith from California to New York.

Law enforcement sources informed the outlet that Pop met the owner of the Rolls Royce back in November at a Los Angeles recording studio. They reportedly entered a verbal agreement, where Pop would use the individual’s car for an upcoming music video. In exchange, the car’s owner would be given VIP treatment at a future concert.

When Pop did not return the car the next day, per the alleged agreement, the owner tracked the car’s GPS to Arizona and reported that it had been stolen. TMZ further writes that the car’s owner noticed the Rolls Royce on Pop’s social media last month, in a since-deleted post that had been geo-tagged in New York.
