After several hours of Janice’s arrest, Broward police arrested singer Sean Kingston on a warrant for multiple fraud and theft crimes near Fort Irwin, an Army base located northeast of Los Angeles.

Moreover, he said his lawyers are handling everything as they speak. His lawyer stated they look forward to addressing these matters in court and are confident of a successful resolution.

The raid and arrest came after a company, Ver Ver Entertainment, accused Sean of fraud charges. The company claims that Sean did not pay the full price of an enormous TV and sound system in February.

The company claimed in court documents that Sean used social media to contact them about buying a 232-inch Clossal TV with a strong sound system.

According to Ver Ver Entertainment, Sean convinced them to install their product with as little a downpayment as possible by making several false representations. It includes his promise to work with Justin Bieber on a promotional video for the company.

However, after the installation, Sean did not pay the remaining payment. Hence, they sued him for fraud and breach of contract.
