Details of the alleged incident
According to police, the incident began after two men were reportedly told their time at the yacht charter company was “up.” The men allegedly became “very aggressive” towards the boat’s captain and crew.
In addition, they demanded a refund and reportedly began making “verbal threats” to the team on board.
The yacht’s captain claimed one of the men told him he was going to “kill” him and even threatened to “throw him off the boat”.
In addition, the suspect is said to have pulled the captain’s wallet and phone from his pocket. According to Local10, the wallet contained about $3,500.

The outlet reports the men have since been identified as Cornell A. Whitfield, 39, and Anteneh A. Workeneh, 32. However, her connection to Quavo and the rapper’s involvement in the alleged crime remain unclear.
