BOSTON (WHDH) - A fight broke out outside the House of Blues in Boston Wednesday night after rapper Kodak Black never showed up for his scheduled performance.

Boston police officers responding to the venue around 8:20 p.m. cleared the area of fans upset with the no-show rapper.

Samuel Simmons, 20, of Newton, was arrested on charges of assault and battery, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, and trespassing.

It was later revealed that 21-year-old Kodak Black, whose real name is Bill Kapri, was arrested after New York State Police say he was found with marijuana and a Glock 9mm while trying to cross from Canada into the United States near Niagara Falls.

He was charged with third-degree criminal possession of a weapon and unlawful possession of marijuana.

House of Blues apologized to the concertgoers, writing across their social media platforms, “With sincere apologies, due to unforeseen circumstances, the Kodak Black shows have been postponed.”

They added that new dates will be announced as soon as possible.
