Rapper Rod Wave was arrested in Georgia on 14 counts, including aggravated assault, possession of a firearm, and felony tampering with evidence.
Rod Wave, known for hits like “Street Runner” and “Tombstone,” was arrested in Fulton County, Georgia, and released on $50,000 bond yesterday, according to court records.
The musician, whose real name is Rodarius Green, was arrested in connection to an incident back in April when he returned to his home following a burglary. An argument ensued, and a pistol was fired 14 times, striking several cars and a wall in the house.
According to Drew Findling, Rod Wave’s attorney, “There is no truth to these charges. Rod Green was a victim of a burglary and committed no crimes. How he was even charged as a result of this situation is incomprehensible. This will absolutely be resolved favorably to Mr. Green.”
An initial police report obtained by the Associated Press says that officers found a large safe in the basement of the home that had been “dragged across the floor, opened, and emptied.” They also found a gold Mercedes SUV on the property with multiple bullet holes in it. Near the swimming pool, police also found a broken window and a hammer in a bush next to it, and a black Glock handgun was also discovered at the scene.
Rod’s girlfriend told officers that she found that the house appeared to have been burglarized when she returned home. The initial report does not list any suspects that may have broken in, nor does it accuse the rapper of committing any crimes.
Rod Wave was previously arrested for possession of ammunition or a weapon in Florida back in April 2024. That arrest was made on suspicion that he was involved in a gang-related shooting following an argument that left four injured.
