Soulja Boy gets probation on obstruction charges
For the AJC
Atlanta rap artist Soulja Boy has been given probation on obstruction charges.
Soulja Boy, whose real name is DeAndre Cortez, fled when police responded to complaints about a group gathered at a vacant home in McDonough, WSB-TV reported Friday.
A judge this week sentenced Cortez to 12 months' probation and a $1,000 fine, WSB said.
