Jadakiss Charged for Gun, Weed Possession
Rap star Jadakiss and three others were arrested on early Saturday and charged with criminal possession of a weapon after their car was pulled over.
A loaded handgun was found in a search of the vehicle, reports E! Online.
Jadakiss was also charged with possession of marijuana after a small amount of the drug was found on him. The car’s driver, Darnell Frazier, was also charged with driving under the influence.
The four men — rounded out by Benjamin Lockhart and Kristian Smith — are currently sitting in jail with a court appearance set for Tuesday, at which point bail will likely be set.
Jada (real name: Jason Phillips) has a history of gun charges. In 2004, he was arrested for possession of marijuana and two guns. He ended up striking a plea agreement on those charges and paid a $900 U.S. fine.
