Nate Dogg was arrested late last week, Billboard reports. The rapper, whose real name is Nathaniel Dawayne Hale, was booked Friday on felony charges of possession of marijuana, drug paraphernalia, and a stolen firearm. He also was charged with misconduct involving weapons while committing a felony, according to Officer John Ortolano, a spokesman for the Arizona Department of Public Safety, says Billboard.

He was later released on $3500 bail. According to Billboard, Dogg’s tour bus was stopped in Kingman, Arizona for going 10 miles above the 75-MPH limit. Authorities smelt marijuana, and when searching for the drug, they found the marijuana, drug paraphernalia, an unloaded Tech-9 pistol, and a loaded Beretta .380-caliber pistol, which had been reported stolen by the Los Angeles Police Department, Ortolano said, according to Billboard.
