RAPPER IN BALTIMORE BULLET BUST

Flamboyant rap star Sisqo – best known for his 2000 hit “The Thong Song” – has been busted for assault and reckless endangerment after allegedly firing bullets at a car from his Baltimore porch, cops said yesterday.

Baltimore County police said the 27-year-old singer, whose real name is Mark Andrews, was arrested Saturday at his suburban home and charged with first- and second-degree assault, reckless endangerment and resisting arrest.

Investigators said they found two 9-mm shell casings on Andrews’ front porch and a bullet in his foyer after a man called police to report that someone shot at him while he sat in a parked car in front of Andrews’ home.

Police said Andrews admitted to firing the gun after he tested positive for gunshot residue. He told cops he had been receiving death threats.

The singer’s girlfriend, Tera Thomas, 27, was also arrested and charged with assault after she shoved a cop at the scene.

Andrews and Thomas were released on bail. With Post Wire Services
