On Wednesday (May 29), Lil Durk announced that he would be turning himself in to police custody without any reasons being disclosed.
According to a report from TMZ for today (May 30), the Atlanta Police Department issued a warrant for the Durk’s arrest and stated that authorities plan to charge hom with criminal intent to commit murder, aggravated assault, possession of a firearm during commission of a felony, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and associating with a criminal street gang to participate in a crime. However, WSB-TV’s Michael Seiden reports that he’s been charged with criminal attempt to commit murder:
Just hours before the story surfaces, Durk’s lawyer spoke to Atlanta’s WSB-TV and told them that the rapper would be turning himself in for charges related to a Feb. 5 shooting at Atlanta restaurant The Varsity. Durk’s OTF affiliate King Von has already been detained for the shooting, which reportedly left a 23-year-old man with gunshot wounds. As of press time, Dirk is not yet in custody.
