Playboi Carti accused of choking pregnant girlfriend over paternity test: report

Rapper Playboi Carti has been arrested in Georgia for allegedly choking his pregnant girlfriend during an argument about a paternity test, according to a report.

The “Shoota” rapper was accused of grabbing the woman by the throat and pushing her on Dec. 20. She claims he held her neck until she struggled to breathe, TMZ reports.

Playboi Carti, whose real name is Jordan Carter, was arrested for felony aggravated assault.

The woman, who has not been named, told police she thought she was going to die, according to the arrest affidavit obtained by the outlet.

The woman, who has reportedly been dating the rapper, 26, for over two years and has been living with him in his Georgia mansion since July 2022, told cops she was 14 weeks pregnant at the time of the alleged attack.

The argument broke out and it quickly became physical as the woman brought up taking a paternity test for her unborn baby.

The woman told cops that a witness tried to break up the fight and she ran to her car —only to be attacked by the rapper again.

She told cops the “Miss The Rage” rapper tried to remove her from the car and put his hand over her mouth while she tried to use the car’s SOS feature to call 911.

When cops arrived to the scene, they noticed injuries to her neck, chest, and back, TMZ reports.

Playboi Carti’s reps did not respond to Page Six’s calls for comment, but his lawyer denied any wrongdoing when reached by TMZ.

“Mr. Carter was falsely accused,” attorney Brian Steel, told the outlet. “Pursuant to my communications with the Fulton County District Attorney‘s office, this case will be dismissed without any prosecution or litigation.”

The rapper has had several run-ins with the law in recent years, including an April 2020 gun and drug bust in Georgia.

At the time, his Lamborghini was pulled over for an expired tag by the Clayton County Sheriff’s Office’s “elite COBRA strike force, who found 12 bags of marijuana, three guns, Xanax, codeine, and oxycodone, the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

More recently, the rapper made headlines after welcoming a son with Iggy Azalea.

The pair, who dated from 2018 until their split in 2020, broke up over Carti’s alleged infidelity, according to Azalea.

“I’m raising my son alone & I’m not in a relationship,” the “Fancy” hitmaker clarified at the time.
