Soulja Boy Accused of Kidnapping Woman
Over the weekend, rapper and entrepreneur Soulja Boy was accused of kidnapping by a woman named Kayla, according to TMZ.
Kayla, who was allegedly dating Soulja Boy was at the rapper’s home in Agoura Hill just outside of Los Angeles on Friday (Feb. 1) night when the incident allegedly occurred. The two allegedly got into an argument early Saturday morning (Feb. 2) when the “Turn My Swag On” rapper asked Kayla to leave his residence.
Kayla obliged, but while backing out of Soulja Boy’s driveway she allegedly hit a curb. Soulja Boy’s assistant then came outside, and things began to intensify.
Young Drako’s assistant reportedly began fighting with the woman, and Soulja Boy then came outside. According to sources connected to the woman, Soulja Boy came outside to stop the fight, but Kayla claims that Soulja Boy punched and kicked her while she was on the ground. Afterward, he allegedly tied her up to a chair for six hours.
Kayla reportedly was released from Soulja Boy’s home Saturday morning, and then called the police and took herself to the hospital where she was allegedly treated for a concussion and three fractured ribs. Soulja Boy’s manager has denied all claims, according to TMZ.
The Grammy-nominated rapper just recently signed with Warner/Chappell.
