Comedian

Trippple X was recently arrested for stealing in the United States, but he says

he won’t try to defend his actions.

“Mi nah go

try fi defend whatever actions that I have done or did. I am not going to try

to downplay it. Mi nah go try fi mek it seem like a sup’m insignificant. Mi nah

go hide it and mi nah go run from it. Mi a stand up and tek mi beaten,” Trippple

X said on Instagram on Tuesday night.

The entertainer went live on Instagram to speak about the matter after his arrest record surfaced online on Monday. The screenshots show that Trippple X, whose real name is Darrielle Anthony Cummings, was arrested in North Lauderdale, Florida, on August 26. He was charged with 2nd-degree petit theft. His bond was US$25.

After the news

broke, several persons started discussing it online. Some persons even created memes

and videos ridiculing Trippple X. Interestingly, this is something he has

welcomed, as he even posted one such video on his Instagram page.

As he deals

with his legal issues, Trippple X declared that he, too, has faults. “I am just

a normal man like anybody,” he said.

And while he

is yet to state what he stole or where the incident occurred, he said that he

will not allow the matter to stop his plans.

“This nah go

break mi. It nah go stop mi. This a just waa simple likkle speed bump weh mi a

go just hurdle and go over it,” he said.
