According to public information, Lil Nas X was taken into police custody after being seen roaming around Ventura Boulevard in L.A. in late August 2025. He was hospitalized for an evaluation of an overdose and subsequently held in the Valley Jail in Van Nuys, California. Lil Nas X is scheduled to be arraigned on August 25.
