Music mogul, Sean “Diddy” Combs, was reportedly arrested on Monday, for fighting a football coach at the University of California, Los Angeles.
According to TMZ, Campus Police took the hip-hop star into custody, following the scuffle at the UCLA athletic facility.
It is understood that the coach was shouting at Combs’ son, Justin, who committed to playing football at UCLA and is now in summer training as a defensive back freshman on the team.
Diddy confronted him afterwards and a physical altercation ensued.
UCLA confirmed the incident in a short statement that reads: “Shortly after 12:30 p.m. today, Sean Combs (also known as P. Diddy) was arrested at UCLA’s Acosta Athletic Training Complex on a charge of assault with a deadly weapon, which was a kettlebell. No one was seriously injured and UCPD is investigating. Combs is expected to be transported to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Inmate Reception Center later this evening.”
Mora also issued the following statement: “I’m thankful that our staff showed the level of professionalism that they did in handling this situation. This is an unfortunate incident for all parties involved. While UCPD continues to review this matter, we will let the legal process run its course and refrain from further comment at this time.”
