Cardi B accepted a plea agreement on Thursday from the Queens County district attorney’s office in New York City after being charged with assault in a 2018 strip club incident.

The original indictment included 12 charges, including two felonies. She has pled guilty to two misdemeanor charges and has agreed to perform community service. The remaining 10 charges were all dismissed.

In 2018, Cardi was involved in a brawl, during which she and nine members of her entourage were accused of throwing bottles, chairs and a hookah pipe inside the Angels Strip Club, injuring two of the bartenders.
