"Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood" star Yung Berg was arrested early Wednesday morning for allegedly beating up his girlfriend. It's been reported that the victim is his "Love & Hip Hop" costar Masika but this has not been confirmed. According to TMZ, the 30-year-old rapper was taken into custody in New York City and charged with "obstruction of breathing."
Sources said Berg and Masika got into an argument at the Gershwin Hotel in Manhattan and he allegedly grabbed her by the neck, threw her on the floor and dragged her across the floor. Masika also claims that Berg hit her in the face.
Police were called to the hotel around 2:15 a.m., ABC News reports, and Masika complained that she was in pain but didn't want any medical treatment. The "Sexy Lady" rapper is currently in custody. According to gossip site Media Take Out, the drama between Berg and Masika started after the reunion show taping for "Love & Hip Hop."
Reportedly, Masika accused her ex-boyfriend Mally of being "gay" and Berg co-signed.
"[Yung Berg] called [Mally] gay and Ray J had berg's back with the gay comments," the source told MTO.
According to the site, Mally got upset and walked off the set and refused to sign the paperwork to allow VH1 to air that part of the footage. A source told MTO that Mally wanted revenge and started texting Berg claiming that he was still sleeping with Masika. The rapper supposedly got his hands on Masika's phone and confirmed the cheating and went off.
