Rap star Fetty Wap aka Willie Maxwell is in hot water after being arrested for driving drunk while drag racing on the Gowanus Expressway in Brooklyn on Friday morning, authorities said.
Wap, whose birth name is Willie Maxwell,
Fetty Wap was behind the wheel of a black 2012 Mercedes CLS AMG when police stopped him around 1:20 a.m. near Hamilton Avenue, an NYPD spokeswoman said. He is also charged with driving on a suspended license.
Wap’s blood alcohol content was above New York’s legal limit of .08. He was driving 100 mph on a stretch of road where the speed limit is 50 mph.
The 26-year-old rap star was charged with reckless endangerment, illegal speed contest, driving while intoxicated, reckless driving, aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle as well as multiple motor vehicle violations such as making an unsafe lane change and following too closely.
This isn’t the first time Fetty Wap has been in some heat. It wasn’t long ago that Wap was in the middle of a feud in Paterson, N.Y. that erupted in gunfire, leaving three people injured.
We hope Fetty Wap gets his act together and get back to making music.
