Burbank police and CHP detained rapper YG on Thursday while serving a search warrant tied to the 2021 killing of Drakeo the Ruler.
CHP said YG was detained, not arrested, and told NBC Los Angeles he is neither a suspect nor a person of interest in the murder investigation.
The warrant was served on Moss Street near Magnolia Boulevard, with CHP working alongside the Burbank Police Department's SWAT team.
