Rapper Lil Baby has been arrested in France as part of a drugs investigation.

The 26-year-old had been in Paris with NBA star James Harden for Fashion Week.

He was detained with one other person in the city for allegedly carrying drugs, the Paris prosecutor’s office confirmed to NBC News on Thursday.

Harden, who has been seen with the rapper around Paris over the past week, was not arrested.

An investigation has been opened by the city’s eighth district police precinct, the prosecutor’s office said.

Footage recorded by a bystander and posted online appears to show Harden and at least one other man having their pockets searched by police officers.
