A$AP Bari Arrested Again, Facing Two Felony Drug Charges

On Thursday, A$AP Mob co-founder, A$AP Bari, was arrested on felony drug charges in Pennsylvania. 

According to TMZ, the fashion designer was picked up in Palmer Township and slapped with two counts of manufacturing, delivery or possession with intent to distribute drugs. However, the drug in question remains unclear. 

In addition to distribution, Bari, whose real name is Jabari Shelton, was also hit with misdemeanors for possession of drug paraphernalia and a controlled substance. 

Shelton was booked at the Northampton County Prison, and released on a $25k bail. In the meantime, Bari is awaiting trial in a sexual assault case, stemming from his May arrest in London. 

Last November, a woman filed a lawsuit against the designer over an alleged assault that occurred at a London hotel in July of last year, but Bari fired back with a suit of his own in August, accusing the woman of defamation.
