Police arrested Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta’s Tommie Lee outside a nightclub in Miami Beach on Monday (June 10). According to local reports, the reality TV star/rapper was charged with battery and taken to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.
Tommie Lee, whose real name is Atasha Jefferson, allegedly tried to hand something to the victim outside the LIV nightclub. The victim told police he did not accept whatever she wanted to give him, which led to her becoming aggressive.
The 39-year-old woman started threatening the victim. She told him she “would have him killed and shot up.” The victim attempted to ignore Tommie Lee, but she poked him in the face. He grabbed her by the arms and held them behind her back until the police arrived at the scene.
