D.C. rapper No Savage is wanted by police after prosecutors allege he and three other men walked into a Fort Washington convenience store, grabbed cigarettes, vape pens, candy, condoms and packaged noodles, then told the clerk the haul was free and threatened to shoot if he interfered.
According to charging documents and a detective’s affidavit cited by The Banner, Noah Settles, 26, and the three others entered Silesia Convenience in Prince George’s County in January 2026. They
“began picking items off the shelves and counter.”
The group then allegedly declared,
“everything was free today,”
and warned the clerk:
“Don’t do anything stupid or we will shoot you.”
No firearm was reported displayed. Still, Maryland law treats the verbal threat as elevating the case to robbery and assault. A Metropolitan Police Department detective identified Settles partly through his “notoriety as a local rapper.”
Settles was charged in March 2026. In May he received home detention. In August, authorities say he cut off his ankle monitor, violating the terms. The Prince George’s County State’s Attorney’s Office confirmed an active arrest warrant followed.
His attorney, CT Wilson, has filed motions to suppress evidence and dismiss the case. A judge has not yet ruled. Trial is scheduled for September 2026. Settles has not been convicted on these charges. An active warrant is not a finding of guilt; the defense continues to challenge the evidence.
Settles, who performs as No Savage, grew up in Southeast D.C. and has built a following with more than 125,000 monthly Spotify listeners. His recent single “Anti Social” dropped in February 2026. He previously served three years for firing shots inside Tysons Corner Center in 2022 no one was hit by the bullets, though three people were injured during the evacuation and received 10 years of probation plus a ban from the mall. That case remains separate from the current Prince George’s County allegations.
Viral posts have zeroed in on the everyday items and the
“everything was free today”
line, sometimes shortening the threat to a singular
“I’ll shoot you.”
Court records describe a group action and the collective
“we will shoot you.”
The core claim holds up against the local reporting and documents, with those wording and group-context details intact.
As of the latest court updates, the warrant remains active and the case heads toward the September trial date while the defense motions sit pending.
