Why was rapper Loski arrested? M40 crash investigation explored

Jyrelle Justin O'Connor, famous by his stage name Loski, has been arrested by the police investigating the M40 crash in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire. While searching the nearby area for people linked to the crash, police spotted Loski near the Crowne Plaza Hotel, from where he tried to run away from the police.

However, police soon caught him and also found a knife, which led to his arrest. According to the Bucks Herald, the blade of the pocket knife was longer than 7.5 cm.

After being caught, Loski admitted to carrying a knife and getting in the way of a police officer doing their job. The court in High Wycombe sentenced him to eight months in jail on July 14.

Detective Sergeant Ed Crofts of the Serious Collision Investigation Unit said in a statement reported by The Sun:

"I am pleased he is back behind bars where he belongs. We will never tolerate anybody carrying dangerous weapons in our community and will seek to bring to justice those that do so."

In another statement, describing the event, he added:

"O’Connor was located while officers were searching for those involved in a fatal road traffic collision on the M40. He attempted to make off from officers, and resisted arrest when the knife was located. He was arrested and charged within 24 hours and has now been jailed for the offence."
