Why Was Lil Meech Arrested; What Did He Steal
Lil Meech of ‘BMF’ was arrested for grand theft after allegedly stealing a $250,000 Richard Mille watch and getting caught.
On March 14, the 22-year-old actor/rapper, who was hand-picked by 50 Cent to play his father, Big Meech, in the Starz’s ‘BMF’ series, was arrested on two counts of first-degree grand theft and one count of organized fraud.
Cops say the actor walked into Miami’s Haimov Jewelers in February and used his $80,000 platinum Rolex to put a down payment on the Richard Mille, but he never paid the remaining $200K balance and never returned the watch.
He is also accused of attempting to trade the watch for another Richard Mille piece at a different store, according to cops.
Lil Meech Released
Lil Meech was released on bond the same day he was arrested, according to records. Lil Meech hasn’t publicly responded to the allegations, but he recently shared an Instagram photoshoot to reassure fans.
Season 2 of ‘BMF’ is set to begin filming in Atlanta, and 50 hopes to avoid having to leave Lil Meech out.
