Saturday, Wiz Khalifa shared video clips on social media that he alleges show him being harassed at LAX Airport by Customs and Border Patrol officers.

According to Rolling Stone, three of of the officers pulled him to the ground and piled on top of him in order to cuff him.

The rapper claims he was standing on his hoverboard — a levitating board similar to a skateboard — when airport cops instructed to dismount.

Khalifa refused, responding, “This? I didn’t do nothing, anyway. What you want to do? Put me in jail because I didn’t listen to what you say? We can have all the conversations you want to, you can end up on TMZ, destined to become as famous as you wanna be.”

Ultimately, he was wrestled to the ground while one officer can be heard telling him, “Stop resisting,” as Khalifa calmly replies over and over again, “I’m not resisting, sir.”
