“This afternoon we were notified by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Dept., that as a result of their investigation, there will be NO charges against Cardi. On behalf of Cardi, we appreciate the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Dept’s diligent and prompt resolution of this matter,” the musician’s lawyers Drew Findling, David Chesnoff and Richard Schonfeld told TMZ.
The outlet noted that the police department reached that conclusion without consulting with the district attorney.
After video footage emerged of Cardi retaliating, a report suggested that she had asked fans to “splash” her with water during the show.
What happened at Cardi‘s show is only one example of inappropriate fan behavior at recent concerts.
