The outlet reported that the 24-year-old was arrested around 1:40 am on Thursday after NYPD noticed a 2014 Mercedes-Benz illegally double-parked at the corner of West 140th Street and Broadway, said police, who used a computer check to determine that the vehicle was stolen. The car was reported stolen two years ago and the plates were registered to a different vehicle, TMZ reported. Declyn Lauper is charged with a felony count of unauthorized use of a vehicle.

Declyn had shared a video of what appeared to be his arrest to his Instagram account.

Declyn is a rapper who has collaborated with G-Easy. He is also an actor whose works include appearing in the animated series, 'Bob's Burgers'. He is the only child of Cyndi Lauper and her husband, actor David Thornton, as per Fox News. (ANI)
