Cardi B hurled a microphone at a fan who attended her show at Drai’s Beachclub & Nightclub in Las Vegas on Saturday (July 29). Footage showed an audience member tossing a drink at the Atlantic Records artist, who responded by throwing her mic.

Police investigated the incident after a woman reported it as a battery on Sunday (July 30). But cops opted to not pursue charges against Cardi B.

Cardi B’s microphone was recovered and put up for auction by the audio company responsible for the equipment. The current bid is listed at $99,900 as of Thursday night.

The eBay auction ends on August 8. All the proceeds will be donated to two charities: Friendship Circle in Las Vegas and the Wounded Warrior Project.
