This is not the comedian’s first arrest in Georgia. Majah Hype was previously arrested in January 2021 following an incident involving his ex-girlfriend, Latisha Kirby Farrell. At the time, he was charged with kidnapping, making terroristic threats, and simple battery. He later bonded out of jail on a $15,000 bond. The comedian also spent some time behind bars at the Cherokee County Adult Detention Center outside Atlanta for the same incident.
It’s unclear if this latest arrest is related to that case, but it is reported his ex-girlfriend applied for a restraining order against him.
