A$AP Rocky found himself in a bizarre situation on Thursday night while out in New York City. The famous artist was promoting his new Puma Suede 94 shoe when a brawl broke out in his vicinity.
In footage obtained by TMZ, numerous attendees of the event could be seen wrestling and hitting each other. The scene continued to get increasingly chaotic, with security guards attempting to break up the melee.
Eventually, the NYPD was called at around 10:30 PM EST. The scene was described as a "disturbance" involving a "disorderly group." The event was subsequently evacuated, and cooler heads prevailed.
At this time, it is unknown if there were any arrests in the aftermath of all this. What we do know is that the brawl didn't last that long. Regardless, it was something that needed to be broken up before it got any worse.
Was A$AP Rocky Involved In The Brawl?
A$AP Rocky was not involved in the fight. Instead, he was simply minding his own business when this broke out.
It remains unclear how or why this fight started. Perhaps those in the crowd were starting to get a bit antsy about the sneaker drop. After all, we have seen these kinds of things happen before in lineups for sneaker releases.
Whatever the case may be, the situation has been handled, and A$AP Rocky's new sneaker is still on schedule for its release.
