The incident which occurred around 4 a.m. happened as security staff escorted Pooh out of the club, according to TMZ.
A police report said the altercation was about money that fell out of the rapper’s pants which caused him to brandish a gun and fire off a shot.
TMZ reported that a security guard was hit in the ankle by the bullet and taken to hospital, and that Pooh had left the scene by the time cops arrived.
Rumors flew on social media at the time that Pooh had been robbed of $40,ooo but he posted on his Instagram Story that it wasn’t true.
The Memphis native, who is signed to Gucci Mane’s 1017 Records and Atlantic Records, released his debut commercial mixtape Shiesty Season in February and it made it to number 3 on the Billboard 200.
His latest arrest comes on the heels of his alleged involvement in a double shooting in Florida’s Bay Harbor Islands last October.
He was charged in December with armed robbery with a firearm, aggravated assault, aggravated battery with a deadly weapon doing great bodily harm, aggravated assault with a firearm, and theft, according to the Miami Herald.
Pooh pleaded not guilty and was released on $30,000 bond in March.
