Tekashi 6ix9ine, American rapper has been arrested in the Dominican Republic.
On Wednesday, January 18, 2024, Tekashi, 27, was arrested by authorities in Santo Domingo on charges of domestic violence according to The associated Press.
The "GOOBA" crooner whose real name is Daniel Hernández is reportedly being held in jail in the Dominican Republic capital and is scheduled to appear in court on Thursday. Per the Associated Press, a judge will decide at the hearing if Tekashi 6ix9ine must remain in jail or be freed on bond while the authorities carry out an investigation.
The rapper reportedly isn't a newbie to run-ins with the law multiple times before.
He had been previously arrested at a seaside hotel in the Dominican Republic in October after being accused of assaulting a local music producer.
Hernández and his partner, a Dominican rapper known as Yailín la Más Viral, had been recording at the producer's studio.
Hernández was also previously accused in the U.S. of using a violent gang as a "personal hit squad," but he avoided prison after providing testimony against the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods, which operate in the U.S. East Coast.
At the time, a judge deemed him a likely danger to the community and he was held in jail without bail during the case on firearms and racketeering charges.
