On April 26, 2019 Officer S. Moore of the Sandy Springs Police Department responded to a residential address in Sandy Springs, Georgia, in reference to an incident involving damage to property… and Migos rapper Offset.
“Upon arrival I met with Junior Gibbons and his family. Gibbons was at the Target in the Prado shopping center when he spotted celebrity rapper Kiari Cephus, know as “Offset”, member of the rap group Migos. Gibbons took out his camera phone and put it on selfie mode in order to get he and Cephus in the view frame, walking behind him. Cephus saw him filming and walked up to him and slapped the phone out of Gibbons`s hand. The phone was an Apple iPhone 8 and valued at $800.00. The phone landed on the ground and it shattered the screen.”
“Because it was done intentionally Gibbons is seeking reimbursement to at least cover the replacement of the phone. I advised he would have to pursue him through the civil courts to seek monetary compensation. However, I would send over the information and video footage of the incident to bring forth criminal charges. I was able to view a video of the incident and it does clearly show the suspect Cephus knocking the phone out of Gibbon`s hand. Gibbons also included a photograph of the damaged phone. The video and photo will be attached to the file for investigative review. Mr. Gibbons was given a case number on this date.”
Perhaps the most remarkable part of this incident is the phone call with TMZ. Look anywhere online and you’ll find speculative comments stating that TMZ pays enormous amounts of money for celebrity footage. While that may be the case in certain instances, this body worn camera video is revealing. It seems fairly clear that as part of negotiations, the rights holder in this case managed to get TMZ to pay a whopping $150 for the video plus photo of the broken phone.

So kid illegally recorded offset inside a store? Most stores don’t allow filing so tbh kid deserved it think twice before you stick your phone in someone’s face fatass
Sold out to TMZ for $150 and proud to snitch on video…. ðŸ€
offset need to calm down a bit but this is a lesson you dont approach people while video taping them .. ask for permission bcs sometimes people had a bad day and wish to left alone. even some famous ass people
Red shirt dude is a clown i hope he got smacked up for this shit
" when he spotted celebrity rapper Kiari Cephus"… who? this is a joke.. every clown who can "burn" money at his local supermarket is now a "celebrity" … i think these days u are a celebritiy if you just have any sort of income and be it youtube

TMZ pays trash for these kinds of vids/pics. $150 and they'll get hundreds of thousands of views and clicks for putting up the video first.
That pinging noise at 6:06 sounds like sonar.
“Mr famous†was just trying to keep these damn paparazzis away, you know because they just follow him all over town, in Target, Walmart, Piggly Wiggly, Dollar Tree, McDonalds, Auto Zone, Red Lobster, Circle K, Big Lots…… all over the damn town, because he’s just so damn famous!

Lol TMZ paying niggas $150 lmao
Don’t pull no camera out just because somebody famous then want to get the police involved when you get smacked
