The Diplomats frontman turned up to a Big Apple police station on Monday (05Jan09) to meet cops who are investigating the rumoured fight with the So Sick hitmaker's crew, which took place at the Louis Vuitton store in Manhattan on 24 December (08).
Jones' lawyer Scott Leemon made arrangements for the hip-hop star to visit a station so he could be quizzed by police over the alleged altercation.
And Leemon tells AllHipHop.com that Jones was charged with the misdemeanour and released on bail once he had completed a full statement.
Jones has also been ordered to court to face the charge on 4 February (09), according to the website.
Details of the incident are still unclear, with Jones telling MTV.Com: "I don't wanna talk about that. We not doing that (talking), let's stop that right here. We above that."
