When police arrived at the bank they held Blac Youngsta and everyone riding with him in his car. The rappers manager took a picture of the rapper on the ground as police handcuffed him. Atlanta police spokeswoman Officer Kim Jones said “It was quickly discovered that the person providing the description to police had provided the wrong description of the suspect.” When the dust settled Blac Youngsta and his friends were released at the scene.
