Incident Details
According to the affidavit obtained by DailyMail.com, Scott, whose real name is Jacques Bermon Webster, was arrested at the Miami Beach Marina around 1:17 am. He was involved in a disturbance on a yacht that escalated into a fight. Police officers who arrived at the scene found Scott standing by the dock, yelling at the vessel’s occupants.
Police Interaction
