MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — Rapper Travis Scott was arrested in Miami Beach early Thursday on misdemeanor charges of trespassing and public intoxication after officers say they found him at the city’s marina shouting obscenities at people on a yacht and disobeyed their order to leave.
Officers went to the marina shortly before 1 a.m. after receiving a call about people fighting on a yacht, according to a police report.
When they arrived, they found Scott, 33, standing on the dock yelling at people on the ship, the report says. Officers told him to sit down, but he kept standing back up and yelling. They could smell alcohol on his breath, the report says.
The man who called police did not want to press charges, so Scott was allowed to leave.
As he walked away, however, Scott kept turning to yell obscenities at people on the yacht. He left as a passenger in a waiting car, but returned five minutes later and ignored officers’ orders to again leave, the report says.

Officers say he then began yelling again, disturbing people in nearby boats and buildings. When officers asked if he had been drinking, he replied, “It’s Miami.” He was arrested.
Scott was released from Miami-Dade County Jail before noon after posting a $650 bond.
