Meanwhile, the Las Vegas Police Department have issued a statement confirming the rappers arrest.

The rapper's girlfriend has now spoken out against the arrest, and tweeted: "ugh why gotta take you from me", with multiple broken heart emojis and crying faces.

She then followed up her tweet with a video of the pair kissing, making a stand against the arrest.

This is not the first time that Blueface has been faced with legal trouble - in 2018 he was arrested and charged with shooting at a vehicle, but subsequently released on a $69,000 bail.
