Moises Johnson, 28, is currently pending a court appearance on charges of felony assault with a weapon, carrying a firearm without a permit and a misdemeanour count of discharging a gun where people may be endangered after he jumped to the rapper's defence after a fight broke out between him and rap trio Migos outside the Sands Expo & Convention Center on Tuesday (21.02.17).

According to TMZ, Las Vegas police officer Danny Cordero said that a single shot was fired into the air by Moises at the time but no one was reported injured in the fight.

Moises - who was initially held by security until the police arrived - pulled out the weapon after the 'Beautiful Girls' hitmaker, 27, was allegedly jumped on, wrestled to the ground and kicked in the head by Migos while attending the event in Nevada.

Sean and Migos managed to flee the scene before officers arrived but the Jamaican-American was later pulled over for a traffic stop and he was "semi-cooperative."

Migos, on the other hand, are not "wanted" by police but officers would like to speak with them.

It's not known exactly what caused the fight but it could have something to do with the war of words Sean and Quavo - one of the Migos - got into last year when he claimed he pulled out of a fight against Soulja Boy.

Writing in a since-deleted post on Instagram, Sean said at the time: "I was right there. (Soulja) said pull up, I want to fight one-on-one. This s**t ain't have to go to no social media...It was no point where (Quavo) ain't show up, it's like okay, he want to go in."
