Senegalese-American superstar Akon found himself in legal trouble this week after being arrested in Georgia on a bench warrant for failing to appear in court over a suspended driver’s license. The saga began in September when police spotted his Tesla Cybertruck stranded in the middle of the road — and soon discovered the singer’s license issue.
Authorities say Akon was originally cited and released at the scene, but a warrant was later issued after he missed his court date. The arrest took place on November 7, though he was quickly released from custody shortly after. Reports also mention that an illegal vape found in his car was seized and destroyed.
Despite the incident, fans remain supportive, viewing it as a minor setback in the artist’s otherwise clean record. Could this serve as a reminder that even stars aren’t above the law?
