Rapper Wiz Khalifa Accused By Police Of Urinating In Public
PITTSBURGH (CBS/AP) -- Pittsburgh police say rapper Wiz Khalifa has been cited for urinating in public.
City public safety spokeswoman Sonya Toler says it happened at about 2:30 a.m. Saturday behind a bar called The Flats on Pittsburgh's South Side.
Khalifa, whose real name is Cameron Jibril Thomaz, is a graduate of Pittsburgh's Allderdice High School and keeps a home in suburban Canonsburg.
He was in town to perform during Pitt's Midnight Madness basketball season kickoff Friday night.
Khalifa and model Amber Rose had a well-publicized on and off and on and off again marriage in July 2013 that ended in divorce in 2014. She has since been linked with Nick Cannon and was previously involved with Kanye West.
Khalifa and Rose had a son, Sebastian, in February 2013.
Representatives for Khalifa, who is known for hits like "Black and Yellow" and "See You Again," did not immediately return phone and email messages from The Associated Press seeking comment on the citation, which is basically a ticket.
