Gym Class Heroes Frontman Arrested Following 'Racist Slur'July 3, 2008
Gym Class Heroes frontman Travis McCoy has been bailed after he was arrested following the bands performance on the American Warped Tour.
McCoy has been charged with one charge of third degree assault following an altercation with a fan at the event in St Louis. The incident happened at the beginning of the band's set, when a member of the audience called McCoy a “fucking ignorant nigger”. McCoy responded by asking the man to repeat what he said before proceeding to break his microphone over the man's head. The singer immediately apologised for his reaction but was arrested as the band left the stage. McCoy was released on a $500 bond on Wednesday morning (July 2nd). A statement from the band’s manager, Bob McLynn, said that McCoy had “absolutely no intention of a physical altercation.” “When he tried to help him onstage, the guy hit Travis in the knee area (which has been in a brace because of a recent sprain), forcing Travis to defend himself. At this point, a scuffle broke out. This whole incident is unfortunate,” he added. (by Jason Gregory) See also: Travie McCoy Working On New Gym Class Heroes Album (24.03.2011)
