G-Unit rapper Tony Yayo, who will celebrate his 29th birthday this Saturday, was arrested and detained in New York for the alleged assault of Jimmy Rosemond’s son.

The alleged asasult took place last tuesday (March, 20) after Rosemond’s son left school and was headed to his internship at his father’s offices for management firm Czar Entertainment on West 25th Street. The building is located near Violator Management, the company that handles 50 Cent’s career.

50 Cent, Tony Yayo and several associates were leaving Violator Management and saw the boy walking down the street dressed in a Czar Entertainment T-shirt. They reportedly had no idea that the teen was Rosemond’s son.

The men then allegedly pushed the youth against the wall, asking him why he was wearing the shirt and how old he was. After he answered "14 years old", Yayo allegedly backhanded the boy, saying "I don’t give a fuck how old this kid is, fuck Czar Entertainment."

The company handles the career of 50’s rival The Game. Also, 50 and Rosemond have been on opposite sides of a court battle over the release of “The Infamous Times - Volume I : The Original 50 Cent,” a Czar-produced DVD about a deceased drug kingpin known in Brooklyn as the "original 50 Cent."

Marvin "Tony Yayo" Bernard has been charged with harrassment and endangering the welfare of a child.

The G-Unit member was reportedly taken to a precinct in downtown Manhattan along with his associates to be identified by the teen. The boy’s mother, Cynthia Reed, was to accompany her son to the station. She has released the following statement in response to the alleged assault :

"As a mother I am concerned that my son (who is a fan of hip hop) would be attacked by the same artist whose music he listens to. It’s a shame that 50 Cent and Tony Yayo could feel comfortable slapping and physically attacking an innocent 14 year old minor that they market and promote their records to. This is a cowardly act on my son who has done nothing to warrant the verbal and physical abuse he received. This issue should not be taken lightly and these men should be looked upon as a serious threat to society, having taken their relentless public rants towards their rivalries to a level of extreme. This should be looked at as a step away from child molestation. I seek justice in the form of restoring my son’s dignity and making sure any child can wear whatever they want without fear of bodily injury."

Tony Yayo a convicted felon, has had numerous recent run-ins with the law. In 2004, he was jailed for six months over possession of a forged passport — just days after he had been released from prison on a one-year gun possession stint.

All this recent media coverage on Tony Yayo could become problematic for another G-Unit member, Young Buck, who is set to release his highly-anticipated album, Buck The World this Tuesday.
