Rap icon Sean “Diddy” Combs was reportedly taken into federal custody on Monday evening after a grand jury indicted him.
It was not immediately clear what the charges were that the grand jury indicted him on but it comes amid a federal investigation that culminated in raids on Combs’ properties earlier this year that focused on “allegations of sex trafficking, sexual assault, and the solicitation and distribution of illegal narcotics and firearms,” according to an NBC News report from March.
“Earlier this evening, federal agents arrested Sean Combs, based on a sealed indictment filed by the SDNY,” said U.S. Attorney Damian Williams. “We expect to move to unseal the indictment in the morning and will have more to say at that time.
