Rapper Travis Scott has been released from custody in Paris after being arrested for allegedly assaulting a security guard at a hotel. The Paris Prosecutor's Office confirmed that no charges are being brought against Scott as the offence was insufficiently characterized, Variety reported. According to local media, Scott and one of his bodyguards were fighting near the hotel when the security guard intervened.
