Overview

• LAPD says officers responded just before 6 a.m. to reports of a nude man on Ventura Boulevard in Studio City and took a suspect into custody.
• Law enforcement sources identified the suspect as Montero Lamar Hill, known as Lil Nas X, and bystander video published by TMZ shows him in white underwear and cowboy boots.
• Police say the suspect charged at officers; he was booked on misdemeanor counts including obstructing an officer and is being held at Valley Jail in Van Nuys.
• Officers transported him to a local hospital for evaluation of a possible overdose before booking, and officials have not confirmed any substance involvement.
• A representative for the artist did not immediately comment, and the incident follows his April hospitalization when he reported partial facial paralysis.
