Playboi Carti Charged with Assault After Alleged Altercation with Girlfriend and Limo Driver in Utah

Playboi Carti was charged with misdemeanor assault after allegedly punching a limousine driver and his girlfriend during a heated argument on Oct. 2, police said.

  • On Oct. 9, Jordan Terrell Carter, known professionally as Playboi Carti, was charged with assault in Wasatch County after an alleged Oct. 2 altercation in Park City.
  • During an Oct. 2 limo ride from the Waldorf Astoria in Park City, Carti and his girlfriend argued inside, prompting Reynolds to ask them to split into different cars, which escalated the dispute.
  • Deputies documented the limousine driver Carl Reynolds’s injuries, noting redness and a jaw line consistent with a punch while Carti’s security guard and the girlfriend gave conflicting accounts.
  • Carter was issued a citation for assault and deputies said it will proceed through court; Wasatch County confirmed an investigation is ongoing while the Antagonist Tour continued.
  • Carti's prior arrests, including a 2020 Georgia drug and gun case and late 2022 assault, add context as he faces new charges ahead of his Dec. 1 final show.
