After threatening and assaulting UCLA football coach Jim Mora with a kettlebell, hip-hop entrepreneur Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, has been booked into the Los Angeles Country Sherrif's Department Inmate Reception Center.

While UCPD continues to review this matter, we will let the legal process run its course and refrain from further comment at this time."
Last year, Diddy collaborated with Meek Mill for his first single since Last Train to Paris, "I Want the Love. Most would probably say that attacking someone with a kettlebell isn't delivering the love at all!
