U.S. rapper A$AP Rocky to face trial in Sweden on assault charge GlobeArts

U.S. rapper A$AP Rocky will be tried for assault in Sweden starting on July 30 over his alleged involvement in a street brawl in central Stockholm last month, the Swedish public prosecutor announced on Thursday.

Last week U.S. President Donald Trump urged Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven to free Mayers and said he would personally vouch for his bail. Sweden does not have a bail system. Lofven has said he will not influence the rapper’s case. “Provocation is something that I, as prosecutor, must always take into account, but I still believe that what they have done constitutes a crime,” he said.
