Prosecutors have dropped a felony charge against rapper Rick Ross a month after he was arrested in Miami Beach when a woman he was living with told police he hit her.

A report from Daytona Beach police shows William Roberts III, a tight end at Bethune-Cookman University and the son of rapper Rick Ross, told them he was threatened and pistol-whipped near campus. The report says it happened on Oct. 11th. Police say Roberts told them he was talking to a woman when a man got out of a car, pointed a handgun at him, and threatened to kill him before pistol-whipping him and taking off. Roberts told police it may have had to do with that woman and her previous relationship with the suspect, Don Roberts III, police say.

Authorities say rapper Rick Ross was arrested early Thursday in Miami Beach and charged with battery related to a domestic violence accusation.
