King Harris, the son of rapper T.I. and singer Tiny, was arrested on April 13, 2026, in Gwinnett County, Georgia. His arrest stemmed from a traffic stop where he was clocked driving 60 mph in a 45-mph zone. During the stop, Harris reportedly refused to exit his vehicle when ordered by law enforcement officers.
Authorities noted that a firearm was visible near Harris during the traffic stop. He was subsequently charged with possession of a Schedule II controlled substance, failing to wear a seat belt, and willful obstruction of law enforcement officers. Harris posted bond and was released from custody shortly after the incident.
In a notable twist, Harris documented his arrest on Instagram while wearing a Pikachu onesie, making light of the situation. He expressed his feelings about the encounter, stating, “living a good Pikachu life in Tokyo then come back to ATL and team rocket(F***IN POLICE) catch me wit a master ball and throw me n jail all night.”
This is not the first time Harris has faced legal troubles. In 2024, he was arrested for marijuana possession after nearly hitting a police officer. Additionally, he had a previous bench warrant due to failing to appear in court for a 2022 traffic stop, although those charges were dropped in August 2025.
Harris’s social media presence often includes provocative statements, such as comparing police to “Team Rocket.” Following his recent arrest, he quipped, “Welp guess you can say they caught da Pikachu wit a master ball,” and added, “F*** dat police.” He even made a controversial remark about having intentions towards an officer’s spouse.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding why Harris initially refused to exit his vehicle during the traffic stop. Furthermore, a future court date for these specific charges has not yet been announced.
