Bow Wow was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery by Atlanta police on Saturday.
The rapper, whose official name is Shad Moss, was arrested following a fight with a woman in Midtown Atlanta, said Officer Jarius Daugherty.
"Officers were unable to determine the primary aggressor of the altercation, so both parties were charged with battery," Daugherty said in a statement.
Both the parties suffered minor injuries and were taken to the Fulton County Jail. Bow Wow was later released on bail after he was being held on $8,000 signature bond.
Bow Wow's lawyer Joe Habachy, said his client was wrongfully arrested.
Habachy said the woman involved in the incident was intoxicated and beat Moss "with a lamp, bit him on his side and spit on him" while he "continually made efforts to avoid her."
"For no logical reason officers arrested both parties despite having clear-cut evidence that Bow Wow was the victim in the case," he added.
