Ella Fitzgerald was arrested in 1946 due to a misunderstanding involving a nightclub performance in Los Angeles. She was accused of violating the city's segregation laws after a police raid, but the charges were later dropped. The incident highlighted the racial tensions of the time and Fitzgerald's experiences as an African American artist navigating segregation and discrimination in the music industry.
