While many people have protested Sweden’s ongoing detainment of A$AP Rocky on social media (including President Donald Trump), one woman took the #FreeRocky hashtag off Twitter and to the Swedish Embassy in Washington D.C.

According to Billboard, Rebecca Kanter was arrested last Tuesday for causing a commotion at the embassy. Katner allegedly kicked over furniture, screamed at staff, and threatening to “blow this motherfucker up.†The day before she was arrested, she allegedly doused the embassy’s door with liquid out of a Coca-Cola bottle and posted about the event on social media. She was charged on two counts of unlawful entry and for willfully damaging property of a foreign government.

A$AP Rocky has been imprisoned in Sweden since he was arrested on July 3. Last week, the rapper was formally charged with assault. If he is found guilty, he could spend up to two years in jail or pay a hefty fine. He and two of his friends who were also arrested are expected to face trial soon.
