Rapper Travis Scott socked a sound engineer in the face and damaged $12,000 worth of equipment at a Midtown club early Wednesday, authorities and police sources said.
The 31-year-old rapper – who has not been arrested and remains at large – punched the 52-year-old man during a dispute inside club Nebula on West 41st Street near Broadway around 2 a.m., according to police and the sources.
He also damaged an audio speaker with a video screen, worth about $12,000, cops said.
The “Sicko Mode” rapper then allegedly fled west on West 41st Street in an unknown vehicle.
He had not been arrested hours later.
