Rapper Bobby Shmurda was arrested Tuesday night following a sting operation involving multiple shootings and drug trafficking, according to reports.

The indictment is sealed and the specific charges were not disclosed.

However, it is part of a long-term investigation conducted by the NYPD and a special narcotics prosecutor, so whatever they found out, it does not sound good.

According to law enforcement, Bobby Shmurda was under surveillance by police and was arrested while he sat in a car outside a New York recording studio.

Shmurda, whose real name is Ackquille Pollard, was taken into custody by investigators. More than 12 others have also been shared in the sting thus far.

He is scheduled to be formally arraigned on Thursday.

Shumurda, 20, was also arrested in October for smoking a joint with some friends while double parked on a Brooklyn street, and in June for possession of a weapon.
