Lil Durk reportedly booked several international flights to confuse authorities before his arrest while planning a private jet escape.

On Thursday Chicago Rapper Lil Durk was arrested by US Marshalls on “murder for hire” charges stemming from a Los Angeles shooting targeting Quando Rondo. Reportedly the shooting happened in retaliation for King Von’s murder at the hands of Quando associate Lul Timm. Very few details were available upon his arrest, but now we have a better picture of the allegations against Durk. The morning of his arrest several associates from his OTF family were arrested in connection to the 2022 shooting in Los Angeles.

According to the Chicago Tribune, Lil Durk allegedly planned to flee the country to avoid arrest. In a wild case of “life comes at you fast”, Durk went from receiving keys to the City of Chicago to planning to flee the country.

Allegedly Durk booked two commercial flights with one landing in Dubai and another in Switzerland. He never made it either flight and Seemingly thought this would confuse the police. Meanwhile, he had a private jet booked to leave for Italy at 9 p.m. Thursday but he was arrested just an hour before takeoff.

We may never know Durk’s thought process but clearing international customs wouldn’t have happened for a wanted man. Allegedly the credit cards used to purchase items in the 2022 shooting that killed one of Quando’s associates were linked to OTF. With that, the pattern of unwise decisions that created the situation continued until the last suspect was arrested.
