Busta Rhymes has been charged with assault after an alleged fight at a New York City gym, according to reports.
CBS claims that the 43-year-old was arrested at the Steel Gym in the posh Chelsea area of the Big Apple at around 8.30pm on Wednesday.
The rapper, real name Trevor Tahiem Smith Jr. allegedly threw a container of Lean Body Protein drink at a gym worker, New York Daily News reports.
Police were called to the scene and Busta Rhymes was arrested, but the victim apparently refused medical attention.
According to New York Daily News, the gym's employee was hit in the back of the head but did not sustain serious injuries.
The star was charged with assault in the second degree after his arrest and it is believed that he is still in jail.
The star's lawyer told TMZ that the allegations are 'a bunch of bull', adding: 'This is another attempt to take advantage of Busta's celebrity status.'
It's not the first time the Woo Ha!! Got You All in Check hit-maker has found himself in trouble with the law for alleged assault.
