“The suspect was drunk and had been fighting with another man – possibly a receptionist in the hotel,” one of the official sources involved in the investigation said, Daily Mail reported.

“He was not in the right condition to be questioned straight away, so was put in a cell where he is still sobering up.”

The rapper’s “condition did not initially allow him to be questioned,” according to a Paris police source, but he was scheduled to be interrogated by judicial police on Friday.

He is being kept in a cell on suspicion of “violence against another person,” according to the source.

Attorneys for Scott have not made any comments on his apprehension.
