R. Kelly was arrested Thursday in Chicago on federal sex trafficking charges -- a new thirteen-count indictment, some charges of which are related to child pornography and obstruction of justice. A separate five-count indictment has been handed up from the Eastern District of New York in Brooklyn that charges him with racketeering. The singer will face charges in Chicago before being extradited to New York to face the remaining charges. He is being held at the federal Metropolitan Correctional Center in Chicago, according to U.S. Bureau of Prisons records cited by the Chicago Tribune.

The 52-year-old singer was arrested at around 7pm yesterday in Chicago, according to U.S. attorney spokesman Joseph Fitzpatrick. Kelly's attorney Steve Greenberg confirmed the arrest via Twitter early Friday morning. “Robert Kelly was arrested by federal agents last night while walking his dog ...The charges arose from alleged conduct in the Northern District of Illinois as well as the Eastern District of New York. The conduct alleged appears to be largely the same as the conduct previously alleged against Mr. Kelly in his current State indictment and his former State charges that he was acquitted of. Most, if not all of the conduct alleged was decades old.”

Kelly's bail hearing will be next week.

The allegations stem from as far back as the late 1990s; Kelly was charged with 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse in February, only to be hit with 11 more counts of sexual assault and sexual abuse in May. Four of the counts charged Kelly with aggravated criminal sexual assault — a Class X felony, which carries six to 30 years in prison if the accused is convicted. Three of the new counts also accused the singer of sexually abusing a victim between the ages of 13 and 16 in 2010, according to Variety.

The recent Lifetime docuseries Surviving R. Kelly caused the singer's longtime record label RCA to drop him and has caused trouble with Kelly being booked for performances.
