Rich The Kid has managed to avoid serving any jail time after accepting a plea deal for intefering with a police investigation into a bomb threat.
Last year, Rich (real name Dimitri Roger) was arrested in Miami after he refused to follow police orders and not go beyond a perimeter they had set up around a hotel as they investigated a bomb threat.

According to TMZ, he has now pleaded no contest to resisting arrest and trespassing in exchange for avoiding further jail time after serving one day in prison following his initial arrest.
He will also pay a $1,000 fine.

The “New Freezer” rapper’s lawyers said: “We believed that if we proceeded to go to trial we would have been successful. The offers leading up to the trial included a period of supervision.
“That being said, our client is pleased with the outcome of time served and a fine to resolve the matter and looks forward to continued success.”

Rich The Kid caused a commotion in December when he repeatedly tried to enter the hotel despite it being cordoned off by the police.
He reportedly ignored numerous threats of arrest if he continued to insist on going to his hotel room.
According to police, Rich responded by saying: “I’ll bond out in 20 minutes” and attempted to enter the hotel through a different entrance but was confronted by security.
The 31-year-old then allegedly jumped the fence before encountering a K-9 unit. He was ordered to leave the hotel but refused before he was taken into custody.

It was reported that Rich was desperate to enter the hotel because he was due to meet with a music promoter who owed him money for a performance at Hyde Beach nightclub alongside NLE Choppa and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie.
Rich did not appear fazed by the arrest as shortly after his release, he began posting scenes from Scarface on social media.
