Has Trey Songz ever been arrested? Indeed, Trey Songz was arrested in September 2012 for allegedly assaulting a woman. The altercation is said to have taken place at the New York City strip joint Club Perfection, where 36-year-old Donna McIntosh-Inoe claimed the R&B star threw a “wad of cash” in her face, as Idolator reports. McIntosh-Inoe and her husband had reportedly shelled out $700 to hang with Trey, who was celebrating the release of his fifth album, “Chapter V.”

Although Trey Songz was arrested for assault, he beat the charges, and according to TMZ, the authorities couldn’t prove the singer had done anything wrong. As per the district attorney in Queens, even if Trey did chuck money at McIntosh-Inoe, “There would be no clear case of misconduct. There was just no high level of recklessness.”

Trey Songz may be reckless, but the arrest for assault doesn’t seem to have left a black mark on his career. The native of Petersburg, Virginia, remains best known for his music, and his five studio albums have made him one of the biggest names in the R&B game. Trey made his debut with 2005’s “I Gotta Make It,” and in subsequent years, he’s certainly made it. “Trey Day,” “Ready,” and “Passion, Pain & Pleasure,” were all major hits, and “Chapter V” wound up topping the Billboard 200, despite the money-throwing thing in Queens.

The fact that fans are asking if Trey Songz has ever been arrested only goes to show how little publicity the incident generated, at least compared to other high-profile hip-hop and R&B run-ins with the law. That said, when Trey celebrates the release of his sixth album, “Trigga,” due out on in June 2014, he might want to steer clear of NYC strip clubs. Or at the very least, he might want to keep his cash in his wallet where it belongs.
