Flavor Flav Has Hall Ceremony, Court Date Conflict

LAS VEGAS (AP) – Flavor Flav has a scheduling conflict between a court date in Las Vegas and his induction with the rap group Public Enemy into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.    
The 54-year-old former rap and reality TV star is due for arraignment Thursday on felony charges that he chased and threatened his longtime girlfriend’s 17-year-old son with a butcher knife during an argument.

 
The Hall of Fame’s induction ceremony is also taking place Thursday, in Los Angeles.    
Defense attorney Tony Abbatangelo has already asked a judge for a different arraignment date for his client, whose legal name is William Jonathan Drayton Jr.    
Drayton faces felony assault with a weapon and child endangerment charges and a misdemeanor domestic violence battery charge.    
Abbatangelo has said Drayton will plead not guilty.
