Tyreek Amir Jacobs Killed over Concords , Not True

We reported earlier that an 18 Year old Kid from Washington Dc was murdered for his Concords which was released today.

 Before the turn of midnight, the release of the “Concord” Air Jordan 11’s had caused mayhem at several malls and shopping centers across America. The rumor of violence received a lot of attention around the DMV when there was word that an 18-year-old Tyreek Amir Jacobs was murdered for his Concords.

 The story started to get a lot of attention across social media including a retweet from CNBC’s Sports Business reporter Darren Rovell, the supposed victim’s name became a trending topic on twitter.

 With a little journalism work by Justin Fenton at the Baltimore Sun, this breaking story appeared to be nothing more than a well orchestrated rumor. First off, local police in the DC area refuted hearing any reports of such a crime. The next big thing uncovered was that the photo of the supposed victim, Tyreek Amir Jacobs, appears to be lifted from the NAACP’s Legal Defenders blog the just so happens to be a stock photo anyone can purchase for $1.43.

From TMZ (which shows a additional video of the destruction that took place):

Rapper Tyler the Creator was arrested in Hollywood a few hours ago after he allegedly trashed some sound equipment inside the world famous Roxy on Sunset Blvd … TMZ has learned.

The 20-year-old MTV award winner had performed at the venue earlier in the evening. The video below shows Tyler appearing to go off on the sound engineer inside the club.

We’re told cops were called by Roxy staff around 11:30 PM … and Tyler was taken into custody in front of his mother … who was visibly upset and yelled at the cops.

Tyler was arrested on suspicion of vandalism and was taken to a nearby station to be booked.

The West Hollywood Sheriff’s Dept. tells TMZ … security staff had contacted deputies last night to report Tyler had “just destroyed an electric soundboard belonging to the venue.”

Cops say, “As [Tyler] was being escorted to a nearby radio car, the crowd exiting the venue became angry and rushed into the street, towards deputies.”

Cops called for backup and closed down Sunset Blvd for 30 minutes to regain control of the situation. Eventually the crowd dispersed and no one was injured.
