Rapper Rod Wave Faces 14 Criminal Charges in Milton, Georgia

Rapper Rod Wave, whose real name is Rodarius Green, voluntarily surrendered to authorities in Fulton County, Georgia, facing more than a dozen charges including aggravated assault, conspiracy to commit a felony, criminal damage to property, pointing a gun, tampering with evidence, and obstruction of law officers. The charges stem from an April 21 incident at his Milton, Georgia home involving a reported burglary and a subsequent domestic disturbance, during which a firearm was discharged multiple times, damaging several vehicles and property. Police reports describe bullet holes in luxury cars and a broken window, while neighbors reported hearing yelling and crying. Green's lawyers maintain his innocence, stating he was the victim of the burglary and committed no crimes, expressing confidence that the charges will be resolved favorably. The 26-year-old Florida rapper is known for his successful music career, including multiple platinum singles and chart-topping albums, with his latest album, "Last Lap," released in 2024. He was released on bond shortly after turning himself in.
