Crime & Arrests

Denver Broncos star receiver Jerry Jeudy was arrested in Colorado on Thursday ... TMZ Sports has confirmed.

A rep for the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office tells us the 23-year-old was taken into custody between 11:30 AM and 12 PM and is currently in jail.

The allegations against Jeudy are unclear ... the spokesperson said the former Alabama superstar is still being processed in the booking phase.

The ACSO spokesperson, though, did say Jeudy was arrested following a call for service.

Jeudy was picked in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Broncos ... and has recorded 90 receptions, 1,323 receiving yards and three touchdowns in two seasons with the team since.

He and Courtland Sutton are expected to be the top targets for Russell Wilson in Denver's offense this season.

Bobby Shmurda can’t wait to unleash his new projects and products onto his adoring fanbase … and he joined us on "TMZ Hip Hop" to reveal what he's been cooking in the stu'.

The newly independent rap star -- who’s been heating up with his new song “They Don’t Know” -- had his undeniable Shmenergy as he told us about some huge collabs with fellow hitmakers. We're talking DaBaby, Rich The Kid, Quavo, Fivio Foreign and his day-one brother, Rowdy Rebel ... just to name a few.

Bobby says he's been loading up new music since amicably parting ways with Epic Records, and he explained why the move is gonna pay off for him in the long run.

The "Hot N***a" rapper's laid down so many new tracks, he plans to drop 2 different projects to dominate Summer 2022!!!

And, music isn't the only thing getting the proud New Yorker lit, as he just inked a deal with Elevate Cannabis Company to release 10 new weed strains.

Bobby's commentary wasn't all fun and games, however. Having served more than 6 years for criminal conspiracy, he shared some words of wisdom and encouragement for Young Thug, Gunna and the rest of YSL after their indictment.

When you throw an event called "Mayhem at Lake George" ... well, you gotta expect some mayhem and this year's get-together was true to its name.

Video has surfaced from the event in Volusia County, Florida, in which a massive fight breaks out ... aquatic style.

It got really bad ... one guy was seriously injured. He was taken to shore and flown to a hospital. We don't know his condition.

No surprise ... alcohol was involved, and apparently lots of it. The Sheriff said, “People are just out there to have a good time, but like anything else, when you have a huge concentration of people like this and you have alcohol involved, you do have some incidents."

It's pretty wild ... you see a guy punch another dude in the face and another guy is tackled into the water ... before things erupt into pure chaos.

There were arrests ... 5 of them. The offenses were predictable ... disorderly conduct and boating under the influence. There were also nearly 40 boating citations.

Casey White is a man back in custody, and by the looks of his latest mug shot, reality is setting back in ... and life is miserable.

White was transferred Wednesday back into the custody of the Alabama Department of Corrections, and as standard process, had to pose for a new mug shot. He'll now call the William E. Donaldson Correctional Facility home.

As for his appearance -- White looks like a man without hope -- a swollen face and markings on his cheek.

Casey and his accomplice, former prison guard Vicky White were captured Monday in Evansville, Indiana after 11 days on the run. Their final attempt to flee was a dramatic one, cops found them at a local motel and a car chase followed.

In the end, their vehicle was rammed, flipped and Vicky took things into her own hands -- shooting herself in the head -- and eventually dying from her injuries.

911 audio from inside Vicky and Casey's vehicle revealed Vicky urged Casey to run, but when it was apparent that wasn't going to work, she began to get pissed at him, blaming him for deciding the couple should stay at some "f*****g motel" instead of running.

"The Flash" star Ezra Miller was aggressive with cops during their arrest in Hawaii, yelling for badge numbers and giving a strange reason why they record incidents.

In police body cam footage from Ezra's March arrest on the Big Island, you see cops ask the actor questions inside the bar where they allegedly became agitated with patrons.

One of Ezra's alleged victims tells cops Ezra attacked him, spitting in his face and going nuts ... and when cops question Ezra, they claim they got assaulted and started filming because, "I film myself when I get assaulted for NFT crypto art."

Ezra raises their voice as they demand names and badge numbers from the officers, but the police ignore them and go back to the alleged victim, who claims he was playing darts and minding his own business when Ezra came up and spit on him.

Once Ezra understands they're the one getting busted for disorderly conduct and harassment, they ask why and again repeat their claim that they were the one who was assaulted.

Ezra also tells police they were complying, but they tell them they weren't ... and when Ezra asks what they did wrong they tell them they're getting cuffed because they allegedly spit in someone's face.

Ezra's claims escalate ... they say their alleged attacker declared himself a Nazi and then they bring up Judaism.

Gunna's an innocent and charitable man, and the cops who busted him are wrong to use his music and lyrics against him ... so says the rapper's legal team.

We've just obtained a statement from Gunna's attorneys, who tell us, "Mr. Sergio Kitchens, known as Gunna, is innocent. The indictment falsely portrays his music as part of a criminal conspiracy."

They also point out some contributions Gunna has made for his community, including the first-ever local free in-school grocery and clothing store feeding over 400 children weekly, and nationally sponsored giveaways for victims of disasters and food shortages.

The legal team, comprised of Donald F. Samuel, John A. Garland and Kristen W. Novay tells us, "Mr. Kitchens has been an advocate for his community, and it is our privilege to advocate for him."

As we reported, Gunna turned himself in Wednesday, two days after Young Thug's home was raided and the rapper was arrested. Both have been arrested on RICO charges from a 56-count, 28-person indictment out of Fulton County, GA.

Among lyrics listed in the indictment, "I killed his man in front of his momma, like f*** lil bruh, sister and his cousin,” and “my trigger start itching" from Young Thug.

Both Gunna and Young Thug have been accused of gang activity, possession with intent to sell an array of drugs, and receiving stolen property.

Gunna was in court Wednesday, and will be held without bond.

Andy Dick is in custody after the trailer he's been living in was surrounded by cops, placing the actor in handcuffs and hauling him away ... and the whole thing was broadcast live.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Dick's been arrested for felony sexual battery after an adult male at the O'Neill Regional Park claimed the comedian sexually assaulted him.

The arrest was streamed on Captain Content's RV live stream Wednesday. You see several Orange Co. Sheriff's Deputies speaking with Dick before walking him to their vehicles, continuing the conversation and eventually cuffing him and taking him away.

Dick and a group of live streamers have been living at the site in RVs for some time now ... sheriff's deputies were seen entering Dick's trailer and searching it after he was placed into custody. They also asked to collect the male victim's pants as evidence.

It's not the first time Dick's had a serious encounter on a live stream. TMZ broke the story, cops performed a welfare check at a home Dick was staying at in Vegas last month after a man he was hanging out with pulled a gun during an argument on a live feed.

Vicky White urged prison escapee Casey White to flee as cops caught up to the couple ... blaming their inevitable capture on his decision to stay in a local motel.

In new 911 audio from the police pursuit that ended in a car crash and the jailhouse lovebirds getting caught, you hear Vicky initially tell Casey to "get out and run."

When it's clear not even running will help, Vicky gets angry and turns on Casey, blaming him for getting them discovered by cops and saying ... "You had to stay in some f***ing motel!!!"

The bumbling Bonnie and Clyde were tracked down to a Motel 42 in Evansville, Indiana ... cops said they planned to shack up there for 12 nights but only lasted 6 days before police caught on and gave chase.

The 911 call came from the crashed car Vicky and Casey were riding in with U.S. Marshals hot on their tail ... and audio shows officers arriving at the scene noting she still had her finger on the trigger of the gun she used to shoot herself.

Casey escaped the crash unscathed, but he couldn't run as Vicky suggested ... and now he's being extradited back to Alabama to face more criminal charges.

Gunna is facing the music in a sweeping racketeering case reverberating throughout Atlanta – the guy's now in custody ... and his mug shot is one for the ages.

The rapper was arrested and booked into the Fulton County Jail early Wednesday morning on RICO charges -- -- stemming, of course, from the 56-count indictment levied against him and dozens of alleged YSL gang members this week.

According to jail records, Gunna surrendered and turned himself in to the authorities -- whereas his alleged co-conspirator, Young Thug, was hauled to jail by cops who raided his property on Monday.

Both MCs have been accused of possession and intent to sell a variety of narcotics, receiving stolen property, and for general street gang activity. They were also charged with being part of a larger criminal enterprise comprised of YSL associates who are alleged to have been involved in a bunch of crimes, including the attempted murder of rapper YFN Lucci.

Gunna is scheduled to make a court appearance Wednesday.

Vicky White, the former prison guard accused of helping murder suspect Casey White escape from an Alabama jail, had a gun in her hand when a police chase ended in a car crash.

The Evansville Indiana Police Department in Indiana just released bodycam footage from Monday's capture, and you see Casey being hauled away as an officer arrives at their overturned vehicle.

Vicky is still inside the car, and as officers try to figure out how to free her from the wreckage they note she has a firearm in her hand with her finger on the trigger and is still breathing, despite a gunshot wound.

After a few minutes, police are finally able to pull Vicky's limp body through the sunroof and out of the truck, but not before prying the gun from her hands.

As we reported ... Casey and Vicky were on the run after she allegedly helped him escape last month from an Alabama prison, and they were tracked and chased by authorities in Evansville, with a pursuit ending when U.S. Marshals rammed the vehicle Casey and Vicky were driving in.

Vicky then allegedly shot herself in the head, and this video ends before she's taken to a local hospital ... where she died from her injuries.

The man arrested for attacking Dave Chappelle will remain behind bars, at least for now ... after a judge refused to reduce his bail.

Isaiah Lee was in court Tuesday, in Los Angeles ... asking for the judge to reduce his $30K bond, and to be released on his own recognizance. The judge denied the request and kept his bail the same. A photo from NBC 4 Los Angeles shows Lee looking solemn.

As we've told you, Lee has been charged with 4 misdemeanors, including possession of a weapon with intent to assault.

You'll recall ... Dave Chappelle was performing at the Hollywood Bowl earlier this month, when a guy lunged at him on stage ... just before tackling DC to the ground. Cops found a fake gun with a knife attached to the end of the barrel on the man.

Lee has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

If he's convicted, he'd face up to 18 months in county jail ... but it's not likely he'll serve that much time.

Escaped inmate Casey White looks like a man with a bleak fate, getting a new mug shot taken hours after his capture and his partner's suicide.

We've obtained the latest pic of White, who is set to be extradited back to Alabama -- where he's suspected of murder -- and will assumingly be kept under incredibly tough watch.

As we reported, Casey and prison guard Vicky White, who is believed to willingly have helped him escape last month were tracked and chased by authorities in Evansville, Indiana Monday. The chase came to a violent end when U.S. Marshals rammed the vehicle Casey and Vicky were driving in. Vicky then allegedly shot herself in the head, she was taken to a local hospital where she died from her injuries. Casey was taken into custody, uninjured.

During a press conference Monday, Vicky's former boss, the Sheriff, said, "I hope she survives this. I don’t know the extent of her injuries. We don’t wish any ill will on Vicky with her health but she has some answers to give us.”

Vicky was the assistant director of corrections at the Lauderdale County Detention Center, and was reportedly an exemplary employee ... many of her former colleagues are shocked she helped in Casey's escape.

Monday's capture came in part to a tip from a citizen in Evansville, and authorities were able to locate the pair in a local hotel before the chase began. Of course, detectives will now work to determine just how Casey and Vicky were able to hatch their plan.

Police say Adreian Payne -- a former Michigan State men's basketball star -- was shot and killed on Monday after he had a dispute with a man outside of a residence in Florida.

The Orange County Sheriff's Office spelled out the allegations in new court documents, obtained by TMZ Sports, saying the killing happened a short time after Payne had arrived at Lawrence Dority's home in Orlando on Sunday night/early Monday morning.

According to the documents, a witness told cops she believed Payne had pulled up to the house to possibly play "mediator" between Dority and his girlfriend, who the witness said, "have a relationship where they argue often."

Cops say witnesses told them 29-year-old Dority ended up confronting Payne outside of the home when he arrived a short time after Payne got there.

In the docs, cops say Dority told them Payne "had no business being at his residence this late at night." Cops say Dority added that he took the former NBA player's "presence as a threat."

Police say Dority told them at one point during his conversation with Payne, the 6-foot-10 basketball player made "movements with his right hand in the right side of his waistband." Cops say Dority told them Payne then said "I'll smoke you bra."

According to cops, Dority immediately went into his home, grabbed a firearm, went back outside, and fired one round at Payne, before he returned to his residence. Cops say Dority said he was "protecting his family and protecting his home" -- and added that "his actions were justified."

In the docs, cops say 31-year-old Payne was struck by the gunfire and was later transported to a local hospital, but died there from his injuries.

Officers say following their immediate investigation -- which included interviews with witnesses and a review of surveillance footage -- they determined Payne was "not threatening Dority in any way." They said he had no firearm in his possession, and claimed Dority's "act was a premeditated killing."

Young Thug and Gunna have found themselves in the middle of a massive bust, involving charges of racketeering and gang activity ... with YT already taken into custody.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Young Thug is currently locked up in Fulton County on charges of conspiracy to violate the racketeer influence and corrupt organizations act, a felony -- as well as participation in criminal street gang activity, a felony.

Sources close to YT tell us his home was raided earlier Monday, with agents tearing his Atlanta home apart -- taking down walls and even digging up his backyard.

At this time, it's unclear what charges he's facing, but there's been paperwork submitted on the Fulton County Court website for Gunna. It does not yet appear he's been taken into custody.

The alleged murderer who escaped from prison late last month and the guard who allegedly helped him have been cornered and captured in an Indiana cornfield ... according to FOX59 in Indianapolis.

It went down Monday afternoon in Evansville, IN, when police tracked down a pickup truck Casey White and Vicky White were driving -- a 2006 Ford F-150. The pair apparently fled to a nearby cornfield where cops surrounded them.

The Lauderdale Co, Alabama Sheriff says Casey has been taken into custody after surrendering ... and Vicky has been taken to a local hospital. It's clear Vicky is in rough shape ... the Sheriff said, "I hope she survives this. I don’t know the extent of her injuries. We don’t wish any ill will on Vicky with her health but she has some answers to give us.”

As for Casey White, he's also in custody and there are unconfirmed reports he too was shot, although it's not clear if it was his own gun or someone else's.

As we reported, Casey White, who was in custody on a murder charge, escaped from an Alabama detention center with the help of Vicky White, who drove him away under false pretenses. Authorities say the 2 were involved in a relationship.

There was a massive manhunt over the last few weeks and the break in the case came last Tuesday when someone spotted Casey White at an Evansville carwash. Police then focused their search in that area, which eventually led them to the field.

Christopher Koch -- New Era Cap's CEO -- is accused of trying to run over his girlfriend's ex-husband in a crazy dispute outside of a Buffalo restaurant on Saturday night.

Erie County District Attorney John Flynn spelled out the allegations against Koch on Monday ... saying the incident began after Koch's GF's ex got into a dispute with Koch in a parking lot.

According to Flynn, at one point during the argument, the man got out of his car ... while Koch remained inside his. A short time later, Flynn said the man alleged Koch then drove his car at him and attempted to hit him with it.

The D.A. says the man was able to jump out of the way, but still suffered a hand injury in the altercation. Flynn said Koch's car continued into the man's vehicle, causing damage to its passenger side.

Koch was charged with one count of first-degree reckless endangerment, a felony, and was arraigned in Buffalo City Court on Monday morning.

If he's convicted on the charge, Flynn said Koch could be facing up to seven years behind bars.

Koch is due back in court on May 25.
