Rapper A$AP Rocky and two other Americans have been temporarily released from detention in Sweden until Aug. 14, when their trial verdict will be announced, according to a Swedish court.

Rocky, whose birth name is Rakim Mayers, and two other suspects were charged with assault for an incident that occurred in Stockholm on June 30. Sweden, which lacks a bail system, has kept Rocky in prison since July 3 after video footage appeared to show him and his companions assaulting a Swedish man, 19-year-old Mustafa Jafari.
