Prosecutors withdrew their charges against Beanie Sigel yesterday after the rapper resolved his previously reported dispute with a rental car firm.
As previously reported, an arrest warrant was put out for Sigel after he failed to return a rental car and the company that had rented it him reported it stolen. An associate of the rapper returned the car, originally due back with the rental firm on 13 Aug, on 5 Oct, but by that time an arrest warrant had already been issued.
But all outstanding fees relating to the rental have now been paid, and prosecutors decided to withdraw their charges at a preliminary hearing in the case yesterday. Sigel's attorney, Fortunato N Perri Jr, welcomed that decision, saying the whole case had been "essentially a misunderstanding between the two parties".
