Sean 'Diddy' Combs arrested after grand jury indictment: report
Music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested Monday evening in Manhattan after being indicted by a grand jury, according to multiple reports.
According to reporting by the New York Times, the charges against the 54-year-old were not entirely clear, but the rapper, producer and entrepreneur has been embroiled in in a federal investigation and sexual assault lawsuits.
Agents with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security raided a mansion in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Holmby Hills in March, along with another one of his homes in Miami.
Combs’ attorney Marc Agnifilo told TMZ that they were disappointed with “what we believe is the unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office.”
“He is an imperfect person but is not a criminal,” his lawyer told TMZ. “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.”
