Dancehall Artiste Beats Gun Charges In United States

Dancehall artiste and producer Rum Blood is happy to be a free man.

The former Ward 21 member says he is happy to be free after gun-related charges against him were dropped.

Rum Blood, whose real name is Ranaldo Evans, was freed by a judge last Friday after the district attorney dropped the charges.

The veteran entertainer had been arrested by on gun charges on Friday, November 29, in Los Angeles, California.

Evans was detained after police pulled over and searched a vehicle he was a passenger of. Illegal firearms were recovered.

The deejay spent 12 hours in lock-up and was released on US$35,000 bail.

According to Evans, he was never worried about his reputation as he remains a law-abiding citizen.

He has since described the entire ordeal as one of the most traumatic experiences of his life and is just thankful that it is over.

“I never been treated that way in my life before; it was like a bully thing,” he said. “But I think what surprised me throughout the ordeal is the amount of people ah say me ah guh get deported or wish bad on me. I must extend my gratitude to people like Bugle, Bounty Killer, and Agent Sasco of the dancehall fraternity who reached out to me and also motivated me to have faith.”

Evans’ attorney has also left the door open for a civil lawsuit, revealing that its ultimately up to his client.
