Ari Lennox was arrested on Monday by Amsterdam airport authorities for allegedly disturbing public order.

According to the ET portal, a border police spokesperson reported that the R&B singer was being questioned for her alleged aggressive behavior towards an airline official, in addition to being drunk in public.

“The Dutch military police, who are responsible for security at Schiphol airport, arrested Ari Lennox for her aggressive behavior towards an airline officer and for being drunk in public.

“She threatened an airline staff and security personnel at the airport, and because of these threats, they are now questioning her,” said the spokesman.

Since her arrival in Amsterdam, the interpreter of “Pressure”, assured that her arrest was due to racial discrimination that she suffered.

“Damn the security of Amsterdam. They hate black people, ”he wrote via Twitter. Later, he tweeted: “I am arrested in Amsterdam for reacting to a woman who profiles me racially.”

The alleged incident comes shortly after Lennox’s performance at the 2021 BET Soul Train Awards, where she performed her latest single and shared the stage with Summer Walker.
