ATLANTA — Rapper Boosie Badazz was arrested Monday on a number of charges related to an on-stage fight earlier this month at State Farm Arena, authorities said. According to Fulton County Jail records, the artist whose off-stage name is Torence Ivy Hatch, Jr., was charged with two felony counts of second-degree criminal damage to property, and one count each of inciting a riot, disorderly conduct and criminal trespassing — all misdemeanors. Boosie and his team were appearing at State Farm Arena on Oct. 1 as part of the Legendz of the Street tour. But a brawl broke out on stage, according to reports, and Atlanta Police said Boosie's entourage rushed the stage, ransacking concert equipment as well as other arena property. Police picked up Boosie Monday and he was booked into the Fulton County Jail around 9:44 p.m., according to jail officials. The rapper was released from jail Tuesday afternoon on a signature bond, a jail spokesperson told Patch.
