Vic Mensa Was Arrested for Possession of Brass Knuckles

Written by Feleg Tesema in Culture

Vic Mensa, real name Victor Kwesi Mensah, was arrested for felony possession of brass knuckles in California, TMZ reports.

Earlier this month, the Chicago rapper was pulled over by police after making an unsafe turn on his motorcycle in Glendale, California. After searching him, officers reportedly found a set of brass knuckles in his pocket.

In the state of California, selling, owning, or manufacturing brass knuckles is an offense punishable by up to one year in county jail. Mensa was arrested and charged with felony possession of brass knuckles before being released a $20,000 bond.
