DESIIGNER ARRESTED ON GUN CHARGES...ANOTHER ONE



First BOBBY SHRMUDA NOW DESIIGNER

The rapper Desiigner has been arrested for pointing a gun at another motorist outside the Lincoln Tunnel in Midtown, police said Friday.

Desiigner, whose real name is Sidney Royel Selby, was driving into Manhattan from New Jersey when he got into an argument with a motorist driving behind his Cadillac Escalade at W. 42nd St. and Eighth Ave. about 9:10 p.m. Thursday, police said. The arrest was first reported by TMZ.

Desiigner allegedly flicked a lit cigarette at the other motorist, then waved a gun at him and took off, police said.

The startled motorist took down Desiigner’s license plate number and called 911, police said. The rapper and five friends riding in his car were stopped across town at W. 42nd St. and Third Ave.

Cops searched the car and found the gun, oxycontin pills and other drugs, officials said.

Desiigner was handcuffed on weapons charges, menacing and drug possession with intent to sell.

Four other people in the car were also arrested. Charges were pending against them.

Desiigner, a native of Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, is known for his single, “Panda,” which rose to No. 1 in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in April. In February, he signed with Kanye West’s label Good Music.
