Rapper and music mogul Diddy was arrested by federal agents in an operation at the Park Hyatt New York hotel.
TMZ obtained footage showing Diddy, dressed in a trench coat, walking into the hotel lobby with his entourage, unaware of the arrest. As soon as he entered, law enforcement officers separated him from his team, leaving them confused.
The video later shows Diddy handcuffed and escorted by federal agents through the hotel hallway and out the entrance, in view of onlookers. His arrest, which was expected on Tuesday, came as a surprise when agents decided to act the night before.

Diddy has been charged with offenses, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He remains in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn after being denied bail, with prosecutors labeling him a "danger."
His lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, criticized the prosecution, stating, "Diddy is a self-made entrepreneur and icon, and we believe this is an unjust pursuit by the U.S. Attorney’s Office." Diddy's legal team continues to challenge the charges.
