[Update] Game Says Arrest Was a Set-Up
The Game, who was arrested last week for allegedly impersonating an undercover cop, appeared on “The Late Show with David Letterman” claiming he was set up by New York police
Game, born Jayceon Taylor, was taken into custody on Thursday after police claimed the rapper hopped into a Manhattan cab, told the driver he was an undercover officer, and made him drive erratically through several red lights
On Letterman’s show, Game said that he is constantly singled out by the NYPD and that the whole incident was a set-up.
“This is a ploy by the hip-hop police to humiliate me because they harass and follow me every single time I come to New York,” Game said.
“I was in town this week to work and promote my new album, ‘The Doctor’s Advocate.’ I never impersonated anyone, especially and absolutely never a police officer.”
The 26-year-old artist is scheduled to appear in court on Dec. 12
