Trinidadian rapper Theophilus London had an unfortunate run in with law enforcement last night (Monday, August 8th) while in New York City. Thankfully for us, he took the time to inform his fandom of the incident via a series of hilarious tweets. The arrest occurred after an altercation broke out between Theophilus and a cab driver. Apparently, Theo had only $100 bills on him which the cab driver was either unable or unwillingly to break. He explains further on Twitter: “So he tried to keep my hundred while screaming in my face, so I gave him 5 mins to make change. After I counted down to 1, I took his phone and smashed it into 900 pieces, then I ran into the IFC Movie cinema and the cops ran up on me.”
Luckily for us, the story was at this point live tweeted by Theo himself, who announced his incarceration like this.

And then released his hilarious mugshot.

Things quickly turned worse for the “so sexy” Kanye West collaborator.

But all seemed to end well for the 29 year old who made a twitter poll for which clothes he should change into post-jail just a few short hours later. He even uploaded a video of him thanking “sarge” on his way out of prison.

While I’m glad Theophilus managed to stay out of trouble this time around, part of me is hoping that he gets arrested again real soon. Stay sexy, Theo.
