LOS ANGELES, June 11 — Miami-based rapper Rick Ross has been arrested on a misdemeanour drug charge in Georgia.
Ross was arrested after he was stopped for a window tint violation. When officers opened the door, they said they smelled marijuana. Officers claim they found marijuana in the car.
Ross is being booked into the Fayette County Jail just south of Atlanta.
Ross, who was born in Mississippi but raised in Miami, was previously arrested on marijuana charges in 2008 and 2011.
The Sheriff’s Office added that Ross was being “very cooperative” and gave officers no trouble at all. Prior to becoming one of the scene’s biggest rappers, Ross worked as a correctional officer in Florida.
