TMZ reports that A$AP Rocky, who was supposed to perform on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon tonight, was arrested in NYC last night after attacking two amateur photographers that tried to take pictures of him during a “verbal dispute with someone.” One of the photographers was taken to the hospital and both suffered cuts and bruises. Rocky was then arrested and is “expected to be booked for attempted robbery.” We’re confused by that last part too.

Brawling seems to be a recurring thing for the NYC rapper.

A$AP is scheduled to play the Catalpa Festival in NYC next week.

UPDATE: the fight apparently happened around Rivington and Orchard, and you can see a picture of Rocky in cuffs below…
