BRIEF: Rapper Travi$ Scott pleads guilty to reckless conduct at Lollapalooza

Dec. 23--Texas rapper Travi$ Scott has pleaded guilty to misdemeanor reckless conduct for encouraging fans to jump the barricades during his set at Lollapalooza over the summer.

Scott, whose real name is Jacques Webster, was sentenced to one year of court supervision after entering the plea Monday.

Scott had played one song before telling fans to come over barricades into the security pit, according to statements from the Office of Emergency Management and Communications and Lollapalooza promoter C3 Presents.

Scott fled the scene and was taken into custody shortly afterward, city officials said. One fan was also charged with disorderly conduct.
