A$AP Rocky found guilty of assault

The 30-year-old rapper was arrested in Stockholm, Sweden, in July for allegedly being involved in a fight prior to a music festival and on Wednesday, he was found guilty and given a suspended sentence, Complex reports.

During the trial, Rocky detailed his side of the "scary" altercation - which left 19-year-old Mustafa Jafari needing medical treatment - claiming that he and two friends, who were also arrested, were defending themselves. However, prosecutor Daniel Suneson argued that surveillance footage from a nearby restaurant was changed by the rapper's team to coincide with his self-defence claim. He claimed that the unedited footage "disproves the use of emergency defence".

Speaking as he took to the stage at the 92.3 Real Street Festival at the Honda Centre in Anaheim, California, over the weekend - which was his first performance since leaving Sweden - he said: "I'm so happy to be here right now. That was a scary, humbling experience, but I'm here right now. God is good. You know what I'm saying? People who wouldn't even f**k with me felt sympathy and sympathetic for my situation. People was praying for me.
