<p>According to <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/08/24/polo-g-brother-trench-baby-charged-gun-drug-possession-robbery/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TMZ</a>, LAPD&#8217;s raid on the rapper&#8217;s mansion was prompted by a report authorities received on August 15. The report alleged that Polo G&#8217;s brother, Taurean Bartlett, also known as Trench Baby or Tbaby, had &#8220;robbed a man in Granada Hills during a music video shoot.&#8221;</p>
<p>Additionally, the report alleged that the victim arrived at the location to &#8220;film the video.&#8221; However, Trench Baby allegedly drew a handgun &#8220;with an extended magazine&#8221; on the victim. Then, he demanded that the man empty his pockets and &#8220;wire money to him.&#8221;</p>
<p>Furthermore, authorities say that the victim and Trench Baby had a &#8220;prior working relationship.&#8221;</p>

<blockquote><p>&#8220;We are waiting [for] additional information. The charges against Polo are very unusual given the timing and alleged knowledge of the police. We believe once all the facts come out it will be a very different picture than how the charges look on paper. We look forward to challenging the accusations and vindicating our client.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
