TikTok star QCP, famous for his viral food tutorials, says he was just trying to help a friend move but ended up getting booked for a felony … ’cause cops say he was cruising in a stolen rental van.
LAPD sources tell TMZ … QCP was arrested for felony possession of a stolen vehicle. We’re told cops pulled him over back on September 9 after officers ran the plates of the U-Haul he was driving and discovered it had been reported stolen.

Our sources say QCP told police he borrowed the van from a friend … but cops say U-Haul had reported the vehicle as stolen because someone rented it, never returned it and then ghosted the company!
QCP was arrested, booked and released from custody on $25,000 bail. So far he has not been charged, at least not yet. It’s unlikely he will be, though, since he was not the one who rented the U-Haul … and has no history of driving stolen cars.

QCP’s camp is confident the case will be dropped … they say one of his roommates was responsible for paying for the U-Haul and didn’t pay on time, but the roommate has since squared up. His rep also says QCP was helping move stuff for a friend and had no idea the U-Haul wasn’t paid for, or that it had been reported stolen.
