  • Prosecutors charged the artist, legally Montero Hill, with three counts of battery with injury on a police officer and one count of resisting an executive officer.
  • He was released on $75,000 bail with requirements to attend Narcotics Anonymous meetings or enroll in an outpatient program, according to court records and reports.
  • LAPD says officers found him nude on Ventura Boulevard and that he charged at them before he was transported to a hospital for evaluation of a possible overdose.
