Trey Songz sues Kansas City Police Department over 2021 arrest at Arrowhead Stadium

Trey Songz alleges police and private security assaulted and wrongfully arrested him during the 2021 AFC Championship, seeking damages for injury and reputational harm.

  • On Jan. 22, Tremaine A. Neverson filed negligence claims saying he was `physically assaulted, wrongfully arrested, handcuffed and detained` at GEHA Field during the January 2021 AFC Championship game.
  • Tremaine A. Neverson says he was heckled, threatened and harassed by fellow football fans, while the complaint contends stadium security and KCPD failed to protect him from unruly attendees.
  • The complaint names Whelan Event Services and Government Employees Health Association alongside KCPD, alleging failure to intervene and assault, while GardaWorld says Whelan hasn't served Arrowhead since 2019; Tremaine A. Neverson seeks unspecified damages for serious injuries and reputational harm.
  • He was initially charged with trespassing, resisting arrest and assaulting a police officer, was jailed overnight, but prosecutors later dismissed charges citing insufficient evidence.
  • Neverson also faces separate Manhattan charges last month for damaging over $1,500 in property and an alleged punching incident, and his attorney Mitchell Schuster says he pled not guilty and is cooperating.
