LL Cool J's oldest son arrested for criminal trespassing

26 year old Najee Smith, the son of rapper-actor LL Cool J, was arrested early Tuesday following a fight in a Manhattan restaurant according to several reports.

Smith refused to leave the restaurant Catch in New York's Meatpacking District and started fighting with security guards who then called police.

Investigators believe Smith was intoxicated, the officials said.

Najee Smith is facing criminal trespass charges in connection with a 3:15 a.m. altercation inside the Catch Rooftop on Ninth Ave. near W. 13th St., officials said.

Najee had just celebrated his birthday Monday and was apparently intoxicated when he caused a disturbance inside the club, police sources said.

When a club employee asked him to leave, he refused, and fought off bouncers as they took him to the ground level and called police, officials said.

Smith is the eldest child of L.L. Cool J who has four kids with wife Simone Smith.

 

Najee graduated from college in 2014 with a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts.
