Silento got arrested over the weekend after getting caught driving over 140 MPH.

Per XXL, the “Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)” was taken into custody in Atlanta over the weekend. “He was booked on four charges in total: speeding, reckless driving, driving on roadways laned for traffic and parking in a prohibited space.”

The police report shows that Silento was driving on an interstate with a 65 MPH speed limit. He was also seen swerving. The outlet adds that after getting pulled over, he told officers, “We ain’t do nothing wrong.” He also said, “If there is like ten cars following me, I can do 143 because I am not a regular person.”

This isn’t the first time the rapper has gotten in trouble with the law in 2020. In August, he was arrested for walking into a stranger’s house with a hatchet looking for his girlfriend. He was charged with two counts of assault with a deadly weapon.

The day before that, he was also arrested in Santa Ana after being involved in a domestic disturbance.
