Atlanta police were called after a stolen vehicle was seen driving through the Lennox Square mall parking lot at 3393 Peachtree Road.

After recovering the vehicle, officers began patrolling the mall for possible criminal behavior during holiday shopping hours and spotted Williams, 25, who was there Christmas shopping for his family.

The officers spotted Williams, 25, who officers confirmed had an active warrant in Atlanta after failing to appear in court.

The rapper was taken into custody with $2,500 dollars on his person that was given to him by undisclosed family member prior to transport.

Atlanta police said they considered that he is a celebrity when they arrested him.

?Officers did take into consideration that Mr. Williams is a high profile music entertainer and escorted him to the employee stairwell and walked out of the rear to avoid crowd issues with taking Mr. Williams into custody,? police said in the report.

The popular entertainer was apparently not in custody long, as he posted the video below while dining in Waffle House shortly after being released…

In the clip, which he posted to snapchat Thug says he’s ‘bigger than the law’.
