A night meant for celebrating basketball turned into a legal nightmare. Three masked intruders broke into GloRilla’s Georgia mansion. Gunshots echoed through the darkness. But the Memphis rapper wasn’t even home to witness the chaos.
The 25-year-old artist was performing at the WNBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis when burglars invaded her Forsyth County residence at 1:30 a.m. on July 20. Armed occupants inside the home fired shots at the fleeing suspects. No one suffered injuries during the terrifying break-in.
Why Was GloRilla Arrested? The Shocking Turn That Made Her a Suspect
Here’s where the story takes an unbelievable twist. Police discovered “a significant amount of marijuana” in the master bedroom of her home while responding to reports of a burglary at the residence. The investigation shifted from hunting burglars to charging the victim. Deputies detected the strong odor of illegal narcotics during their search of the crime scene.

While I was in Indianapolis performing for the WNBA all star game & instead of Focusing on finding the Suspects , they focus on some cannabis
1. So no I wasn’t busted
2. My house got robbed
3. I wasn’t home
Long story short my…
The Lanier Regional Drug Task Force obtained a search warrant and raided GloRilla’s bedroom closet. They found marijuana and controlled substances. Instead of focusing on the escaped criminals, authorities turned their attention to the absent homeowner. The rapper, whose real name is Gloria Hallelujah Woods, suddenly faced felony charges.
GloRilla voluntarily surrendered to Forsyth County Jail on Tuesday, July 22. She posted a $22,260 bond and walked free hours later. The charges include Felony Possession of Marijuana and Possession of Schedule One Controlled Substance. Meanwhile, the actual burglars remain at large with no arrests made.
The “Wanna Be” hitmaker exploded on social media about the absurd situation. She tweeted her frustration about the backwards investigation priorities. “CRAZY‼️ My House got Home Invaded” while she performed for thousands of fans miles away. She emphasized three key points: she wasn’t busted, her house was robbed, and she wasn’t home. The rapper concluded with bitter sarcasm about being the only person arrested in her own burglary case.
