Rapper Kamaiyah was arrested and charged with a felony after she allegedly discharged her firearm at a movie screening inside a condo complex in suburban Los Angeles.
According to the police report obtained by TMZ, Kamaiyah, 27, was hanging out with friends inside an apartment building’s movie screening room in San Fernando Valley, California, when she reportedly took her gun out and started playing with it.
TMZ reported that Kamaiyah, whose real name is Kamaiyah Jamesha Johnson, did not have beef with anyone and did not take out the gun for protection against an attack. She simply was fumbling with it when the gun accidentally went off.
After the shock of the gun blast, the publication reports that Kamaiyah high-tailed it out of the screening room and disappeared.
Someone obviously notified the police and a warrant was issued for her arrest. After a couple of weeks, the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department tracked her down. The department stated in its report that they are in possession of the same gun that she had during the accidental discharge.
She is facing felony negligent discharge of a firearm and was given a $35,000 bond.
Kamaiyah has been blowing up lately, but this was too literal. Her star power has risen exponentially with the hit songs “Windows” featuring Quavo and Tyga and “F— it Up” featuring YG.
It remains to be seen how this episode affects her bag.
