Trey Songz Arraigned in NYC on Assault and Criminal Mischief Charges

He was released without bail under supervised release pending a Feb. 18 court date.

Overview

  • Prosecutors allege the singer punched a Dramma Night Club employee around 4 a.m. after being told the venue was closing, causing swelling and substantial pain.
  • In a separate early-morning incident at Mira Mediterranean & Hookah Lounge, he allegedly damaged about $1,500 worth of property, including hookahs, DJ equipment and sofas.
  • Court records reflect charges that include third-degree assault and second-degree criminal mischief, with additional harassment-related misdemeanors reported by some outlets.
  • A judge issued an order of protection for the nightclub employee, and Tremaine Neverson was released on his own recognizance under supervised release conditions.
  • His attorney says he was provoked and is cooperating with authorities, and video of his hookah-lounge arrest shows him telling officers, “I didn’t touch anybody.”
