The arrest took place at his home in the Hollywood Hills around 7 a.m. local time. Law enforcement officials confirmed that Soulja Boy is currently in police custody awaiting a court appearance.
The Los Angeles Police Department released a statement indicating that they received a tip about a possible probation violation involving Soulja Boy. Upon arriving at his residence to conduct a search, officers allegedly found ammunition on the premises, which would violate the terms of his probation.

Authorities are continuing their investigation into the matter, and Soulja Boy is expected to appear in court for a bail hearing soon.
