The Weeknd was arrested in Las Vegas on Saturday after allegedly punching a police officer in the head. According to TMZ, officers responded to a fight complaint at the Cromwell Hotel around 4 am, where they found the singer wrapped up in the scuffle. 

When one of the cops tried to pull the "Often" singer into an elevator, The Weeknd allegedly hit him in the head. He was then booked for battery of a protected person, but the Canada native was bailed out soon after. 

After being released, The Weeknd posted up a telling photo on Instagram that read, "escaped from Las Vegas."
