Pecohub Polo G was arrested over the weekend on felony weapon possession charges in Los Angeles, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department jail records.
The Chicago rapper — born Taurus Bartlett — was booked in Van Nuys Jail on Saturday afternoon after being initially detained around 2:20 p.m. PT.
“I checked the L.A. County Sheriff’s website and do show a Taurus Bartlett being booked on 10/19/24 at 2:20 p.m. (booking #6903929),” a spokesperson for the LAPD said via email. “He was booked for 25400(A)(1) PC-Weapon in a Vehicle, a felony, at Plummer Street and Topanga Canyon Boulevard.”
He was charged with felony possession of a concealed weapon in a vehicle. Per jail records, Polo eventually secured his release from jail on Monday (Oct. 21).
Polo G has faced a litany of legal issues in recent years. He was arrested in August 2023 alongside his brother Taurean Bartlett (a.k.a. Trench Baby). Police got a warrant to search Polo’s residence after Trench Baby was named a suspect in a robbery while he was living with Polo at the time.
Upon entering, law enforcement discovered “numerous firearms” at Polo G’s Burbank home and both brothers were arrested. Polo ended up being booked for possession of a short-barreled rifle. According to jail records, the 25-year-old posted $100,000 bond and was released a day later.
