Cardi B’s Video Shoot Erupts in Drama as Photographer is Handcuffed

Cardi B‘s latest video shoot came with an unexpected side of drama after a photographer found himself in handcuffs during filming in Brooklyn.

The rapper was shooting scenes for the ‘AH HA’ visual in Sunset Park on Monday (August 10) when a 70-year-old photographer, Steven Sands, reportedly ran into trouble with security and police.

According to TMZ, law enforcement sources say Sands bypassed police barriers and allegedly ignored instructions from Cardi’s team before refusing orders to leave the area.

Footage circulating online shows Sands being detained in handcuffs beside an NYPD patrol car. He was ultimately released without being arrested but was issued a criminal court summons for disorderly conduct.

Sands has offered a different account, claiming he was simply trying to secure a clear shot of Cardi when security prevented him from moving to an open area.

Either way, it seems this shoot delivered more than just visuals.
