That Video is crazy

UPDATED
The Black Wall Street label owner The Game was arrested today (Oct. 28th) in Greensboro, North Carolina.

The Game, whose real name is Jayceon Terrell Taylor, was shopping and greeting fans in the Four Seasons Town Center in a Halloween mask

Authorities were unaware of the reason for the commotion and approached Taylor and allegedly asked him to remove his mask.

Once authorities realized that he was a celebrity, they allegedly tried to diffuse the situation.

Officials said The Game grew hostile and stated "Ya'll don't know who I am," and proceeded to make a scene.

Police stated that after several attempts to resolve the situation were unsuccessful, The Game and an associate was subsequently arrested and charged with two misdemeanors of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

The Game was released without bail and was slated to performed at Winston-Salem State University.

“They thought I was Rodney King,” Game told WFMY News 2. “I would play the racial card but we’ve done that too much. I’m here for the concert and signing a little girl’s autograph got me arrested.”

Footage taken by a fan captures several officers pushing and shoving the rapper, who’s not wearing a mask during the incident.

As Game is backing away, an officer pulls out a can of pepper spray and aims it in the rapper’s direction.

The Game is then handcuffed and led out of the mall.

“Whenever there’s a use in force, regardless of where it occurs or when it occurs, we always initiate an internal investigation and that’s exactly what will happen in this case,” a police representative said. “There was a use of force and we made an arrest for two individuals who are part of the rap group The Game. When we applied pepper spray to those folks, that automatically means we will initiate an investigation to determine whether that was justified. “

The Game said he would call his lawyers to seek legal recourse
