This isn’t the first time A$AP has been in problems with the law. In 2019, while in Sweden, the “F—kin’ Problems” singer was charged with assault causing visible bodily harm. He pleaded not guilty to the charge and was imprisoned for over a month before being found guilty of assault. He received a suspended prison sentence as a result of his conviction (and did not serve any additional prison time). He was also sentenced to pay the victim $1,270 in damages.
