DMX must really love spending time behind bars.

The troubled rapper was arrested (yes again) in a Phoenix mall Saturday afternoon on suspicion of felony identity theft, reports E! News.

According to the entertainment website, DMX, whose real name is Earl Simmons, reportedly used a fake name and Social Security number to avoid paying a $7,500 medical bill.

Police say DMX used the alias “Troy Jones” when he checked in to the Mayo Clinic last spring for pneumonia.

This is the rapper’s fifth arrest in the past three months. No bond has been set for the artist but officials say he will likely remain isolated in jail for safety purposes.
