Negro thug Nelly Arrested on Rape Charge Following Seattle-Area Concert

[Chuck]

Nelly, born Cornell Haynes Jr., was booked into Des Moines,
Washington's SCORE Jail just before 6:40 a.m. PST Saturday,
three hours after the Auburn Police Department responded to a
call from a woman who said that the rapper raped her on the tour
bus.

Nelly is currently on the Smooth Stadium Tour with Florida
Georgia Line and the Backstreet Boys; the trek came to Auburn's
White River Amphitheatre on Friday night.

According to Q13 Fox, following the concert, Nelly came to
nearby Seattle and picked up a woman who he then brought back to
his tour bus in Auburn, which was parked behind a local Wal-Mart.

At 3:48 a.m., the woman called police and said Nelly sexually
assaulted her on the bus. Auburn Police, citing probable cause
for arrest, took the rapper into custody and charged him with
second-degree rape. After less than 90 minutes at SCORE, Nelly
was released from custody at 8:02 a.m.

"A female called 911 to report that she was sexually assaulted
by a male, who is known as the rapper 'Nelly.' The alleged
assault was reported to occur on the tour bus that was parked at
the listed location," Auburn Police said in a statement. "Nelly
had performed at the White River Amphitheater just hours
before." The department added, "Auburn Police are continuing to
investigate this incident. The above details are all we have to
release at this time."

The rapper's representatives did not respond to Rolling Stone's
request for comment, but a lawyer for Nelly told TMZ, "Nelly is
the victim of a completely fabricated allegation. Our initial
investigation, clearly establishes the allegation is devoid of
credibility and is motivated by greed and vindictiveness. I am
confident, once the scurrilous accusation is thoroughly
investigated, there will be no charges. Nelly is prepared to
pursue all all legal avenues to redress any damage caused by
this clearly false allegation."

The Smooth Stadium Tour comes to Ridgefield, Washington Saturday
night.
