The Game Arrested at Autograph Signing

by: Alyssa Rashbaum

right First, he was tossed out of a fashion event in late August when organizers grew concerned about the rapper's alleged involvement in the shooting of Suge Knight at Kanye West's post-MTV Video Music Awards party. Then, on Friday [October 28], the rapper was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest at a mall in North Carolina for causing a scene and refusing to remove his halloween mask, according to The Associated Press.

"I got arrested for signing autographs," Game told WFMY-TV following his release on $500 bail. "Signing a little girl's autograph got me arrested."

While Game cried outrage, though, local police claimed the rapper and his entourage were acting up at the Four Seasons Town Centre, cursing and generally causing a scene. When they refused to leave and surrounded officers, Game and his entourage were sprayed with pepper spray.

"They thought I was Rodney King, man," Game said to WFMY-TV. "It was a case of mistaken identity. It's unfair, man. Their behavior's unfair."
