Lil Nas X was spotted leaving a courthouse in the Los Angeles area on Monday after posting a $75,000 bail. This secured his release from custody following more than three days in jail due to his arrest on battery charges last Thursday.

The artist behind Montero (Call Me by Your Name), aged 26, donned a baby blue jumpsuit covering him from head to toe as he exited the legal premises in Van Nuys, California, following his arrest which took place in nearby Studio City.

Lil Nas X, whose full name is Montero Lamar Hill, wore sandals and carried papers in his hand as he exited the building.

With an audience of over 10.3 million Instagram followers, the musician faces several felony charges. If convicted, he could face up to five years in state prison.

The Atlanta native was arrested after police saw him walking naked down Ventura Avenue in Studio City, leading to a confrontation in which authorities used a Taser to subdue him, TMZ reported Monday.

Lil Nas X’s charges include three felony battery counts, including injury on a police officer and resisting an executive officer.

Lil Nas X ‘did unlawfully use force and violence and inflict an injury’ on three police officers who he should ‘reasonably should have known’ was a peace officer involved ‘in the performance of a duty’ for the public, a criminal complaint against the musical artist read.

It appears that the Old Town Road artist has a brewing legal battle on his hands.

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman vowed that he will bring the musical artist to justice for his alleged attack on a group of police officers at around 5:40 a.m. on Thursday.

‘Attacking police officers is more than just a crime against those individuals,’ Hochman said in a statement, ‘but a direct threat to public safety.’

The prosecutor added that the Grammy-winning artist should not expect any special treatment in the wake of the confrontation in the San Fernando Valley last week.

‘Anyone who assaults law enforcement will face serious consequences, no matter who they are or how famous they may be,’ Hochman added.

The Panini vocalist entered a plea of not guilty as he was arraigned Monday in the courthouse’s Department 100. 

He is slated to attend a preliminary hearing on September 15 in Department 112 of the courthouse.

The incident involving the Rodeo performer is being probed by the North Hollywood Division of the LAPD, officials said

The Van Nuys Branch of the District Attorney’s Office is handling the case against the performer. 

A lawyer for Lil Nas X, Christy O’Connor, told a judge that ‘assuming the allegations here are true, this is an absolute aberration in this person’s life,’ NBC reported.

O’Connor added that ‘nothing like this has ever happened to him.’

Lil Nas X made a splash in music in 2018 as his country rap track Old Town Road went viral, leading to a collaboration with Billy Ray Cyrus on the same track. 

He has past collaborated with artists such as Cardi B, DaBaby and Jack Harlow.

A source told Daily Mail last week that the musical artist might have fallen in with the wrong crowd as he copes with the fallout of fast fame and fortune over the past seven years.

‘Nas doesn’t feel that he can trust many people from his past,’ the source said, ‘because they tried to exploit him financially – but some of those people suspect his new friends can’t be trusted either.’

Lil Nas X has been ‘been hanging around some seedy characters in LA who some people suspect have been leeching off him and living in his house,’ the source went on to say.

Lil Nas X’s relatives want to step in and support him in the wake of the most recent incident, the insider said.
