T.I.‘s son King Harris has been arrested, shortly before he is about to become a father for the first time.
The 20-year-old rapper and reality star was picked up by police on Monday (October 14) following a traffic incident in Dunwoody, Georgia, according to WSB-TV.

Harris was pulled over after almost crashing his BMW into a police car as an officer was leaving a gas station.
The officer claimed he could smell weed as he approached Harris’ vehicle and later found two small bags containing marijuana, as well as a gun in the car.

It was while running a background check on T.I. and Tiny’s son that police discovered he had an outstanding arrest warrant in Pickens County, Georgia, for failure to appear in court.
The warrant stemmed from an August 2022 incident where Harris was caught speeding while driving under the influence of drugs and on a suspended license.

Harris was described as being “cooperative” during his arrest and allowed the officer to remove his gun from his hip “with no issue.”
Two other people were also in the car with him, with one of the passengers cited for marijuana possession but not arrested.

The arrest comes just weeks after T.I. revealed that King was expecting his first child.
Appearing on Atlanta’s Hot 107.9 radio station, he said: “King’s about to have a son. And I told him, I’m gonna make this the greatest gangster of all time.”

The Grand Hustle rapper then recalled joking to King that he was going to teach the child to “torture you the way you tortured me. I promise you there will be an indictment in this young one.”
King and his girlfriend J’Nijah “Nana” Epps celebrated their pregnancy by throwing a lavish baby shower in Atlanta earlier this month.
