Rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine was arrested in Palm Beach County, Florida Wednesday following a traffic violation, authorities said.
The performer, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, was taken into custody for failure to appear, online jail records show. He was released on bond Thursday just after midnight.
His attorney could not immediately be reached.
Deputies were conducting traffic enforcement "when they observed a vehicle commit a moving traffic infraction," the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office said in a statement. "They also observed that the vehicle did not have a license tag."
The driver was stopped and identified as the rapper. The sheriff's office said he had a suspended driver's license and an active traffic warrant for failing to appear for a July 12 court date stemming from an incident in June when he was cited for speeding, not having proof of insurance and driving an unregistered vehicle.
6ix9ine was taken to the county jail with no additional charges. He received traffic citations for Wednesday's incident.
