In June 2022, it was reported that rapper No Savage was wanted by police after he allegedly shot up a mall in Virginia. Since then, police have caught up with the alleged shooter and arrested him. Now, Noah “No Savage” Settles has been charged with three counts of discharging a weapon into an occupied building, the use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and attempted malicious wounding.

Police allege the 22-year-old was caught up in an altercation between two rival gangs. Along with that, footage looked over by police show a man believed to be the rapper walking in the mall with a firearm around the time of the incident. 

Because of the seriousness of the incident, No Savage was denied bond last month. County Commonwealth attorney Steve Descano issued a statement, saying, “We opposed bond for Mr. Settles due to the serious nature of the allegations. We will do everything in our power to keep our community safe. Firing a weapon inside a crowded shopping mall poses a serious threat to the safety of Fairfax County citizens, as well as visitors to our community.”
