Video of the crazy incident — obtained by TMZ — shows Hoggy standing outside of the car with his hands in the air … then slowly and carefully backing toward the armed officers. He was then ordered to get on his knees before being detained.
The good news for the rapper … our law enforcement sources tell us it was determined neither Hoggy nor the person riding in the vehicle with him had anything to do with the car theft.
We’re told they were both released without being arrested because they weren’t involved in any crime … but cops kept the car are still trying to get to the bottom of how it turned up stolen.
Hoggy’s known for being tight with Nipsey before his death and is signed to the late rapper’s label, All Money In. BH included a tribute to Nip in the music video for his summer single, “Trap Pac” … and featured him in several other tracks, including “Raised Like This.”
