Azealia Banks Arrested After Allegedly Biting Female Bouncer’s Breast

Rapper Azealia Banks was reportedly arrested and charged with third degree assault following an altercation that took place at New York City club Up & Down last night (December 16).

According to the New York Post, Banks allegedly attacked a security guard working at the club. The site reports that she was arrested after punching a female bouncer and “biting her in the boob.” She was later released on her own recognizance.

The Post goes on to say that Banks attended a private party at the club and was booted after getting into a dispute with the bouncer around 12:30AM. According to a witness, Banks reportedly showed up to the party with an invited guest: “It was an invite-only party. You needed a stamp to get in.”

The altercation allegedly broke out after Banks was reportedly asked to get a stamp upstairs.

A source said, “There was a female security guard and a male guard,” and noted that they “didn’t recognize Banks," so Banks reportedly started “screaming at the top of her lungs, cursing.”

A club owner reportedly noticed the scuffle and “gave her a pass to let her in” but “once [Banks] was 15 feet inside, she starts to curse at the guards again, explaining who she was, that she’s on Rihanna’s album.”

Banks then allegedly “spit in the [female bouncer’s] face,” and as they escorted her off the premises she reportedly “bites the [female guard] in the breast, almost breaking her shirt…as they took her out."

This event comes just a month after Banks reportedly attacked a security guard at Los Angeles club Break Room 36. And just a few months before that, Banks was filmed calling a Delta flight attendant a “f—king f—got” after reportedly also spitting on and punching a French passenger she said attacked her.
