Polo G’s Other Run-Ins With the Law

Polo G has had several run-ins with the law over the past few years. In June of 2021, he was arrested in Miami for resisting arrest and battery on a police officer. That September, he was arrested again in L.A. for carrying a concealed weapon.

Last August, his L.A. home was raided by police and he was charged with gun possession after seven weapons were reportedly found in his home.  Back in April, Polo was arrested for gun possession again in New York. That arrest came after a member of the cleaning staff at The Dominick Hotel located in downtown Manhattan discovered a gun in the 25-year-old rapper’s room and notified police. He was charged with criminal possession of a weapon and criminal possession of a firearm.
