It looks like "Gucci Time" is back behind bars.

E! News has learned that hip-hop star Gucci Mane, otherwise known as Radric Davis, turned himself into Atlanta police Tuesday night to answer allegations of assault at a local nightspot.

Per the incident report obtained by E! News, cops were called to Harlem Nights club on March 16 after a patron complained that he had been attacked in the VIP area.

Upon arrival they interviewed the victim, James Lettley, who stated that after he tried to make conversation with Mane, the rapper "struck [him] in the head with a champagne bottle."

According to Atlanta's WSBTV, Lettley is a soldier who was seeking a photo with Mane when he was struck violently and suffered a laceration to the head. He was taken to nearby Grady Memorial Hospital by ambulance, where he received 10 stitches.

Since Davis left the scene, a warrant was issued for his arrest on Friday.

After surrendering to authorities, the 33-year-old MC was booked into Fulton County Jail on a charge of aggravated assault. He'll remain there for the time being after bond was denied during a court appearance this morning.

His prior run-ins with the law probably didn't help.

A rep for Mane was unavailable for comment.
