A warrant has been issued for Joe Budden’s arrest in New York City. The rapper, who actually lives in New Jersey, skipped out on a court date on Thursday (May 28) and as a result is now a wanted man.
He was scheduled to appear in the domestic violence case brought against him for allegedly hitting and choking his ex-girlfriend, Audely Robles, back in 2014. But despite the media reports that police are looking for him, Budden has been active on social media.
“I’m gonna sue the living s**t out of u gentlemen,” Budden tweeted in response to a manhunt conducted by the NYPD. “I’ll be in a strip club in Astoria tonight. Let the ‘Man hunt’ know @NYPDnews.”
There has been no official word from Budden or his attorney as to why he missed the court date. Budden has not yet been arrested or turned himself in (source).
