Mos Def-On the run from Las Vegas police

Back in August while attending a fashion event in Las Vegas, Nevada Mos Def was allegedly involved in an altercation with a photographer. Dante Terrell Smith A.K.A Mos Def is looking at facing a felony robbery charge, in addition to a malicious destruction of private property charge. Las Vegas police have already issued a warrant for his arrest. Volker Corell, an official photographer for Men’s Apparel and Garment Industry Convention (MAGIC), was the other person involved in the alleged altercation. According to Corell, he was simply doing his job as a credentialed photographer (not a paparazzi) by photographing the guest at the event; when all of a sudden Def ripped the camera from around Corell’s neck, proceeded to smash it into the ground, and then took of with the damaged equipment. Corell claims to have suffered a cut to his left hand during the alleged incident. Corell also stated that he was completely unaware of who Mos Def was until after the alleged attack.
