A$AP Rocky’s former friend, A$AP Relli, who testified against the rapper during his Los Angeles criminal trial, reportedly has two outstanding warrants.

According to court records obtained by TMZ, the warrants stem from an August 2010 incident in Weehawken, New Jersey, involving charges of driving without a license and careless driving.

Relli is currently testifying in A$AP Rocky’s criminal trial, where the rapper faces charges for allegedly shooting Relli during a heated 2021 altercation on a Hollywood sidewalk.

Relli claimed in court that Rocky pulled a firearm during the argument, prompting him to challenge the rapper, saying, “You better use that s**, what the f** you got a gun for?”

Relli stated that A$AP Rocky, born Rakim Mayers, pulled the trigger during their 2021 altercation, with a bullet grazing Relli’s knuckles.

He revealed that their close friendship deteriorated after Rocky insulted him during a phone conversation with A$AP Bari.

Relli also claimed Rocky repeatedly contacted him, including a message saying, “Let’s get to it … stop ducking my calls,” which Relli interpreted as a challenge to settle their dispute, ultimately leading to the shooting.

Relli testified Wednesday, describing his life as “a living hell” since the alleged 2021 shooting incident involving A$AP Rocky.

Rihanna, Rocky’s partner and mother of his two children, attended the court session, sitting alongside Rocky’s mother and sister to show support.
