Jaydes, the 18-year-old underground rapper from Florida, was arrested this past weekend on a charge of attempted murder. According to an affidavit, obtained by Pitchfork, Jaydes stabbed a woman who “was not taking on his sexual advances to her.” He is being held without bond in a Broward County jail. A judge has also ordered a mental health evaluation for Jaydes, and he must not make contact with his alleged victim, further documents obtained by Pitchfork show.

A warrant for Jaydes’ arrest was issued on November 3, and the alleged violent incident took place on November 2. According to the affidavit, deputies from the Broward Sheriff’s Office responded to a 9-1-1 call about a stabbing that occurred, in the late afternoon, in an apartment in Tamarac, Florida. The police officers made contact with the alleged victim, “who had stab wounds to her neck and forearm,” according to the document, and she was taken to a pediatric emergency room to get “multiple stitches for two lacerations.” (The alleged victim’s name is included in documentation obtained by Pitchfork, but we are choosing to withhold the name from publication.)

The affidavit continues with a sworn statement that the alleged victim provided to the Broward Sheriff’s Office’s violent crimes unit. The woman told police officers that Jaydes, whose legal name is Jayden Yen Dumont, sent her a text message in the afternoon, on November 2, inviting her to his apartment in Tamarac. She agreed, and he sent an Uber to pick her up, according to the statement. Upon her arrival, she says, she was talking with Jaydes on his bed when he “made a move to kiss her.” She says she “pushed him away and told him she didn’t like him like that.” Jaydes allegedly replied, “‘Come on,’” and “reengaged in a second kiss.” The woman says she “denied him again and Dumont left the room. [She] stated a few minutes later he returned with a box cutter and scissors, and he began to stab her. [She] stated Dumont stabbed her forearm and back with the scissors then stabbed her neck with a pink box cutter. [She] advised she fought him and was able to run to the bathroom where she called 9-1-1 for help.” By the time officers arrived, she says, “Dumont was no longer in the apartment.”
