Dramatic footage has emerged of Travis Scott being hauled out of a five-star Paris hotel in handcuffs after he was arrested for an altercation with his bodyguard.
The video kicks off with the “Sicko Mode” rapper, 33, being dragged through the Four Seasons Hotel George V lobby by three male cops before being aggressively led into a waiting police car with his hands cuffed behind his back.
Scott doesn’t say a word to hecklers and paparazzi who are trying to ask him what happened as officers shove him into the backseat of the vehicle and buckle his seatbelt.

The video ends with the “Highest in the Room” performer getting into a van with his hands released from the cuffs.
As Page Six exclusively reported Friday morning, Scott yelled at his security guard at the famed hotel.
The altercation went down after they got into an argument about local paparazzi – as one shutterbug allegedly got into the trunk of his car.

Scott then allegedly confronted his guard asking why he let the photographer into the trunk, and then the argument ensued.
“They were screaming at each other, and the hotel freaked out and called the cops,” the insider said of the incident.
The Paris prosecutor’s office said in a statement to NBC, “I can confirm that on Aug. 9, 2024, police officers were called to the George V hotel and arrested the rapper nicknamed Travis Scott for assaulting a security guard.”

The statement continued, “The security guard had intervened to separate the rapper from his bodyguard. The Paris public prosecutor’s office has referred the case to the 1st district of the judicial police.”
Scott had been staying at the George V while attending the Paris Olympics.
“We are in direct communication with the local Parisian authorities to swiftly resolve this matter and will provide updates when appropriate,” a rep for Scott told Page Six.
