Quando Rondo Arrested on Federal Drug Charges in Georgia
Quando Rondo was arrested on federal drug charges on Friday night (Dec. 8) in his hometown of Savannah, Georgia.
The 24-year-old rapper, whose real name is Tyquian Terrel Bowman, was taken into custody by the FBI after being pulled over in a vehicle, according to ABC’s Savannah affiliate WJCL. The Savannah police served as the arresting agency.
Quando’s car was reportedly pulled over around midnight with the intention of arresting the rapper and not because of a traffic violation. None of the other people in the vehicle were taken into custody.
A Savannah Police Department spokesperson told WJCL that the rapper, who was a passenger in the vehicle, was arrested without incident. He is expected to appear in court next week, according to Rolling Stone.
Quando’s arrest arrives nearly six months after he 18 others were indicted on drug and gang charges in Savannah. He is accused of being a manager of the Rollin’ 60s street gang, and conspiring with others to distribute marijuana and to buy hydrocodone pills, the Associated Press reported in June.
He was released on a $100,000 bond shortly after being jailed.

Georgia man sentenced for assaulting law enforcement during Jan. 6 Capitol breach
ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) – A Georgia man has been sentenced for assaulting law enforcement officers during the Jan. 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.
Michael Bradley, 50, of Forsyth, was sentenced to 60 months in prison, three years of supervised release, and ordered to pay a $2,000 fine, authorities said.
Bradley was previously found guilty of multiple offenses, including civil disorder, assaulting, resisting or impeding officers, engaging in physical violence in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon and other charges.
Back in January of 2021, Bradley made his way toward the U.S. Capitol’s Lower West Terrace Tunnel carrying a baton in a hip holster, the Justice Department said.
According to the DOJ, Bradley raised his baton and approached officers, but he was sprayed with a chemical agent, which caused him to retreat temporarily.
Video evidence shows Bradley later returning to the tunnel and swinging his baton at the officers at least twice in an attempt to hit them.
Bradley then moved to the side of the tunnel and left the Lower West Terrace a few minutes later, the DOJ says.
The FBI arrested Bradley on Sept. 7, 2023 in Forsyth.
