Cardi B Says An NYPD Officer Placed Her In A Chokehold

She confirmed the alleged assault via Twitter.

While Bronx rapstress Cardi B should be riding high off of her single, “Bodak Yellow” possibly hitting number number one next week, she’s revealed that she was recently a victim of police brutality in her hometown.

The former Love & Hip Hop star took to Twitter detailing her experience being placed in a chokehold by one of New York’s Finest. In a post that has now been deleted, Cardi wrote, “can’t believe this cop put me on a chock hole [sic] just now s***t is crazy these NY cops don’t know how to do they job F**K 12.” Not stopping there, she quickly confirmed one fan’s question surrounding the race of the offending officer. Asked if he was white, Cardi responded, “YEUP HE WAS.”

Hours before Cardi B’s interaction with NYPD, she released the highly anticipated remix of “Bodak Yellow” with Kodak Black.
