Rapper Busta Rhymes was arrested and
charged with assault after he threw a protein
drink at a worker at a Chelsea gym last night,
cops said.
The 43-year-old whose real name is Trevor
Tahiem Smith Jr., threw the cardboard Lean
Body protein drink container during a dispute
with the employee at the Steel Gym around
8:30 p.m., police said.
The bottle hit the worker in the back of the head
but the employee was not seriously injured.
Several witnesses said the 2 had been at odds
in the past and questioned why Busta was
arrested.
The star was charged with assault in the
second degree after his arrest and it is believed
that he is still in jail.
Busta Rhymes' lawyer says: 'This is another
attempt to take advantage of Busta's celebrity
status.'
