G-Unit’s Lloyd Banks has been arrested on suspicion of assault and robbery in Canada. The rapper was taken into custody by police in Ontario over the weekend after allegedly attacking club promoter and hip-hop road manager Chris Hines, according to AllHipHop.com.
Hines booked Banks to perform several tracks at Club NV, but arrived late and only played one song before leaving the stage. Hines refused to pay the tardy Banks for the gig, reportedly prompting a fight between the promoter and the rapper, who had been accompanied by three associates.
Hines was admitted to a local hospital and treated for multiple contusions and head trauma. Banks is facing charges of assault, robbery, and forced confinement.
