Rapper A$Ap Rocky was reportedly caught up in a nasty fight in Auckland, New Zealand early on Thursday morning (25Feb16).


The hip-hop star had performed at the Vector Arena on Wednesday (24Feb16), but following the concert, he was involved in a fight at the Pullman Hotel around 3am local time, according to TMZ.com.


Sources tell the website Rocky was in an elevator with some girls when three men attempted to join them, and the rapper allegedly told them there was no room left.


The men reportedly began yelling "F**k A$AP!" then jumped Rocky and punched him in the face, all while the star was trying to protect the ladies.


Insiders tell TMZ hotel security eventually broke up the fight, and police arrived soon after. A 35-year-old man was reportedly arrested and charged with assault and resisting police.


It is unclear if Rocky suffered any injuries, but he is still scheduled to perform in Sydney on Thursday night.
