Sean Kingston is in trouble with the law again over jewellery. A warrant of arrest has reportedly been issued to the star over his alleged failure to pay yet another jeweller.
The singer allegedly had jewellery delivered to his home but has not paid for the items. He has since been charged with a grand theft charge as a result.
It has been reported that authorities do not plan on actively pursuing the singer. TMZ reports that his warrant will remain in the authorities' system in case the Beautiful Girls hitmaker falls into their hands through some other brush with the law.
This is not the first time that Kingston has made headlines for his his troubles with jewellers. According to Complex, in February 2018, a judge ordered Kingston to pay $301,500 to Aqua Master - a jewellery store based in New York City. He had failed to pay for nine pieces of jewellery.
A few months later, AP The Jeweler went public about Kingston dodging him over past due payments. Social media users have shared mixed reactions to Kingston being issued with a warrant of arrest. Check out some of their comments below:

"He's always in the blogs for stealing. First it was owed a jeweler, then for not paying for a house, and now this. I thought his dad was a rich music label owner."
