[Update] Game Pleads Not Guilty To L.A. Fight
Friday, June 8, 2007 By: Kenny Rodriguez
The Game pleaded not guilty on Thursday to punching and threatening to shoot a man during a basketball game in South Los Angeles.
The 27-year-old rapper, born Jayceon Terrell Taylor, is charged with three felony counts of making a criminal threat, possessing a firearm in a school zone, and exhibiting a firearm in the presence of an officer.
Taylor, who remains free on $50,000 bail, faces more than five years in state prison if convicted.
Prosecutors allege that during a Feb. 24 pickup basketball game, Taylor punched an opposing player, then pulled out a gun from his red Cadillac Escalade, and threatened to shoot him.
His attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, did not immediately return a message seeking comment, according to the Associated Press.
