British rapper Yung Filly has been charged with reckless driving in Perth, Australia, just weeks after his sexual assault hearing.
The 29-year-old YouTuber, real name Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, was arrested in Brisbane in early October after he was accused of sexually assaulting a woman in her 20s in his Perth hotel on September 28 after a nightclub performance.
In an initial October hearing, he was charged with four counts of rape, three counts of assault and one count of impeding a person’s normal breathing or circulation by applying pressure to their neck.
He was granted conditional bail and told to stay in Western Australia, ordered to report to the police daily and post a personal $100,000 (£51,438.05) cash surety.
Now Barrientos has been charged with reckless driving after allegedly being picked up for speed driving at 158kph on a Perth highway in November by a speed camera.
The incident reportedly occurred on November 17 on Roe Highway in High Wycombe near the Kalamunda Road interchange where the limit is 100kph, per the Mirror.

The car has allegedly been impounded as he awaits a hearing for the charge next Thursday, December 19, the same day he will appear on the assault and choking charges.
He has not issued any statement addressing this latest incident.
Metro has reached out to Barrientos’ representative for comment.
