The police in the Massachusetts town of Charlton have told residents to keep their eyes peeled for men looking to challenge pedestrians to "rap battles," The Associated Press reports. According to the police, a black SUV full of men in their late teens or early 20s pulled up to three teenage boys last Saturday:
One of the men — described as having brown hair and a pale complexion, wearing a gray T-shirt, gray pants and open-toed sandals — got out of the vehicle and started rapping while the other men asked the boys if they wanted to "spit some bars" with them.When the boys declined, the SUV drove off.
