Lil Nas X was arrested early Thursday morning in Los Angeles on suspicion of battery on a police officer and hospitalized for a possible overdose, per ABC Los Angeles affiliate KABC.

Montero Lamar Hill, otherwise known as Lil Nas X –  was taken into custody and hospitalized after he was found walking in the street without his clothes on. Hill was seen walking down the middle of Ventura Boulevard in Studio City at 4 a.m. on Thursday in just a pair of white briefs and cowboy boots on video released exclusively to TMZ.

The Los Angeles Police Department told NBC News in a statement that officers responded to the 11000 block of Ventura Boulevard just before 6 a.m. in regard to reports of a nearly naked man (the location is just west of the 101 Freeway, near Vineland Avenue). Police said that the man – later identified as Lil Nas X — charged at officers when they arrived on the scene. LAPD said: “he was transported to a local hospital for a possible overdose and placed under arrest for Battery on a Police Officer.” Hill also punched an officer twice in the face during the encounter, according to a police source.

Officers were unsure whether Hill was on any substances and/or whether he was in mental distress, and booking records were not immediately available in the Los Angeles County database.
