Authorities say rapper Machine Gun Kelly organized a flash mob at a suburban Cleveland mall and was charged with disorderly conduct.Strongsville police say the group gathered Saturday, and mall management asked three people standing on a table near a second-floor railing to step down. Kelly was among the three. When they refused, police were called.
Police say they're no longer in custody. Kelly tweeted later that "today was a statement."
The incident took place in front of a Panera Bread, as screaming high school kids ran through the mall and surrounded Kelly.
The rest seems to happen pretty fast, at least on camera -- they enter the mall, rile the crowd up, and the police intervene.
Kelly, who hails from Cleveland, explained how important his hometown fans from home are to him as his car drove away from the police department.
