Posted by Atlanta, GA – YFN Lucci has reportedly surrendered to Atlanta police after a warrant was issued for his arrest earlier this week. According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Lucci turned himself in on Wednesday night (January 13) and booked into Fulton County Jail around 11 p.m. local time.
Lucci faces multiple charges related to the December 2020 shooting death of 28-year-old James Adams, including felony murder, aggravated assault, participation in criminal street gang activity and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony.
The 29-year-old rapper (real name Rayshawn Bennett) surrendered just hours after releasing a video for “Rolled On” to his Instagram and Twitter accounts, which was posted the day after Atlanta Police Homicide investigators announced he was wanted.
Atlanta attorney Thomas Reynolds declined to comment on Lucci’s charges but did say, “Every person has a presumption of innocence.”
