Another ‘Empire’ star is in the spotlight for the wrong reasons – and this time it’s Bryshere Gray.
Details after the jump…
The actor, who plays Hakeem Lyon on the FOX music drama, was arrested in Chicago last week – although it’s only now hit the newswire.
Per the official report, his case is billed as being for “driving-related offences.”
According to TMZ, Gray was pulled over for a registration issue (apparently, the tags didn’t match the car). It was then ascertained that he was driving his 2014 Rolls-Royce sans a license or insurance.
The end result?
Gray was booked on misdemeanor (for the registration that was not authorized on the vehicle); he was also cited for operating his car without license or insurance. He was then released.
The drama comes on the heels of the Jussie Smollett saga and the recent announcement that the upcoming sixth season of ‘Empire’ will be the show’s last.
I guess…
If he was white he would have been given ticket and possibly just had the car towed or parked. Because he was DRIVING WHILE BLACK they arrested him. If there was NO car accident this is just the same thing as getting two traffic tickets and having to pay them. No reason for him to be arrested! Cop was hating because in one day this young black man makes what the cop makes in a year and he is driving a rolls!
How about driving WITH legal docs, you victimhood snowflake. STFU, queerdo.
TROLLmine I AGREE. I just watched that documentary on “driving while black” smh
so basically they ran his tags just because he was a black man in a rolls. end of story
WHAT MY USERNAME SAYS!
And they were right to as he turned out to be a criminal just like they suspected. If he had done nothing wrong, he’d have had nothing to worry about so it’s his own fault.
Exactly blacks make excuses like every black man innocent
You are racist gutter trash who is an idiot. A traffic offense is Not criminal! It is a misdemeanor! He has nothing to worry about b|tch.
The Jussie Smollett effect…lol
Sucks
I would say it’s the car, not the driver, that initially attracted the attention of the officer. The fact that the driver turned out to be black was probably icing on the cake for the officer. Anyway, whites are more likely than blacks to receive a warning instead of a ticket. I had a clean record the first time I was pulled over and it was for tags that I didn’t realize had expired. I was driving a nice car and two officers pulled me over, admonished me for not moving over quicker, and then questioned me like I wasn’t the owner of the vehicle. One other time I was pulled over it was again a white officer whose first question was, “Is this your vehicle?” I probably messed up his day when he discovered the car was registered to me. Some white people just don’t like to see a black person with nice things.
This tv show is cursed!!! Need a ghostbuster for sure
This was none of our damn business and not even worth reporting.
