A Cuban rapper was arrested after, authorities said, he was captured on video brandishing a firearm during a road rage incident near Florida International University. Ovidio Crepo-Retureta was charged Wednesday with aggravated assault with a firearm, improper exhibition of a firearm and possession of a controlled substance. According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the incident happened Monday afternoon as the victim was traveling eastbound on Southwest Eighth Street underneath the Florida Turnpike in West Miami-Dade. As the victim was driving, detectives said, a McLaren driven by Crepo-Retureta almost struck the victim while he changed lanes. A Lamborghini was following Crepo-Retureta. The victim then honked his horn, and Crepo-Retureta brandished a firearm, which caused the victim to duck because he thought the suspect was going to shoot him. Video shows the victim pulling closer to Crepo-Retureta’s car, and the Cuban rapper pointed the gun out the window again. That’s when the victim took to social media to explain what had happened. “The singer Ovi pointed a gun at me and threatened me in Miami,” said the victim in Spanish. “He pointed at me. I thought I was going to get shot.” FHP troopers arrested the rapper on Tuesday when he was driving a Lamborghini in Doral. Troopers found a gun and narcotics inside the car. Crepo-Retureta is being held at Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in West Miami-Dade on a $6,500 bond and he has an immigration hold.
