After the controversial arrest of rapper ASAP Rocky in LAX last week, developments on the case have now resurfaced.

Last Apr. 20, 2022, ASAP Rocky was arrested in LAX for his alleged involvement in a 2021 violent altercation that turned into a shooting along with four other unnamed persons, one sustaining an injury.

The Los Angeles Police Department believes that ASAP Rocky was one of the suspects in the ongoing case.

ASAP Rocky Blindsiding Arrest To Give Way To Weapon Seize

Following ASAP Rocky's arrest last week, more information about the case has unfolded in the days that passed.

Notably, a day after his arrest, it was revealed through a TMZ police source that the Los Angeles Police Department allegedly blindsided Rocky on his controversial LAX arrest.

The reason behind the blindsiding? - for the authorities to simultaneously seize the rapper's home in Los Angeles to search for the alleged handgun used in the 2021 shooting incident.

However, new reports today suggest that the police already found what they are looking for.

ASAP Rocky New Update: Seized Guns on Los Angeles Home?

Now, in a new report from TMZ, police have apparently found firearms in ASAP Rocky's home and walked away with them after the search.

Law enforcement sources have also said that they would be running ballistic tests on the firearms found that could potentially determine whether it was really ASAP Rocky who fired at the victim in November 2021.

Extensive background checks on the guns will also conclude if the weapons are stolen or possibly belonged to someone other than the 33-year-old rapper.

In another update on the TMZ Exclusive report, sources close to ASAP Rocky say that cops have determined "very quickly" that the lawfully and legally registered guns found in Rocky's Los Angeles home were not connected to the 2021 crime.

The same sources also tell the publication that the officer "never even removed" the weapons from home, in contrast to the initially reported one. Authorities did not take the guns as they were unrelated to the gun used in the alleged shooting.

More details relating to the case might be available to the public soon.

ASAP Rocky has posted $550,000 bail after his arrest and was spotted dining out with the very pregnant Rihanna in Santa Monica, California.
