From Fox News: Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested Monday in Manhattan, Fox News Digital confirmed. It’s unclear what charges Diddy faces.
Combs was arrested in the lobby of a New York hotel, a source confirmed to Fox News Digital.
“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Marc Agnifilo, Combs’ lawyer said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital.
“Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the Black community. He is an imperfect person but he Is not a criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.”
Combs’ homes in Miami, Florida and Los Angeles, California were both raided by federal officials on March 25 of this year, amid a human trafficking investigation.
Damian Williams, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced in a statement on social media Monday night, “Earlier this evening, federal agents arrested Sean Combs, based on a sealed indictment filed by the SDNY. We expect to move to unseal the indictment in the morning and will have more to say at that time.”
