Rapper Snoop Dogg Arrested At Burbank Airport

BURBANK, Calif. -- Rapper-actor Snoop Dogg was arrested Thursday at Bob Hope Airport on suspicion of being a felon in possession of a gun and transportation of marijuana, police said.

The rapper and actor, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, was arrested by officers from the Burbank/Glendale/Pasadena Airport Authority Police Department at 3:45 p.m. after they approached him for an alleged vehicle code violation in the passenger loading and unloading zone, according to Burbank police Sgt. Kevin Grandalski.

Officers said they soon discovered a gun and marijuana in Broadus' vehicle, said Burbank police Lt. Omar Rodriguez. Broadus was taken to the Burbank Police Station Jail where he was booked on gun and drug charges, Grandalski said.

Broadus was released on $35,000 bail. Arraignment is scheduled for Monday in Burbank Superior Court, Grandalski said.

Orange County prosecutors were deciding Thursday whether to file charges against Broadus for allegedly trying to bring a banned collapsible police baton aboard a plane at John Wayne Airport last month.

Broadus had the baton in his computer bag when he entered the airport on Sept. 27 for a flight to New York, said Jim Amormino of the Orange County Sheriff's Department.

Airport security workers said they spotted an object in the bag and were initially unsure of what it was, Amormino said.

The collapsible baton, which expands from 8 inches to 21 inches, is classified as a dangerous weapon and is illegal to possess and "definitely illegal to bring on a plane," Amormino said.

Broadus, 35, said he did not know the object was illegal to carry and said it was to be a prop in a video he was to tape in New York, Amormino said.

The baton was confiscated and Snoop Dogg was allowed to continue his flight. He was not cited, Amormino said.

that dawg is crazy....Burbank Airport is a few minutes away from our office...hope he is not heading our way lol ....nah better yet ...hope he is :-) i like snoop dawggggg!

stupid *****

If he was pulled over and checked by the police on a weekly basis he'd be getting arrested on a weekly basis. When is Snoop Dogg not carrying pot or a weapon?

naughty boy

what is a baton? :P

bad doggy :D

After a certain amount of wealth, people should be given a "Guide to not losing what you've built" manual that would cover such things.

Though in his industry, it's only helping his career.

I was actually going to keep one of those batons in my car.
It's way easier than carrying around a baseball bat and easier to hide. I love those things.

welcome to last week !

Yeah naughty boy.. :thumbsup

you guys understand this right?

he was getting off a private jet & into a car parked on the tarmack

this was a setup all the way....they already knew the vehicle was stacked

the cops are idiots...snoop's one brutha white people love

easy revenue target?

bad bad boy ;)

Hasn't he been arrested in an airport at least 5 or 6 times? wtf is his problem, lol.

Snoop, Snoop, Snoop!

you ever see the southpark episode where the cops kept trying to arrest rich black men? :1orglaugh

ofcourse they find it in his car and want to try to charge him with attempting to transport
holdin da man downnn

Snoop is the shiznit! :)

haha crazy dude bringing guns and drugs to the airport..

So what's funny right is that the night before he got arrested he had a giant fund raiser/potluck which housed 5000 kids. It was for a football league he has for kids. There was NO press on that, not even a newspaper article! As soon as he get's arrested everyone knows about. And that there is bullshit.

One more thing. Honestly this isn't a bad thing. #1 he's an artist who has to protect himself so the gun is necessary. #2 We all smoke weed so wtf. Of course these things are against the so i understand why they arrested.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

how did you arrive at this conclusion?

who gives a fuck, he's a celeb - and is obviously not going to bring down an airplane.

Well you have to give him some credit - he handles his own biz :-)

if it was one of us we would be sitting in jail right now lol

he is a snitch for the police

with a brand-new asshole to market!

how many times before he goes to jail. If i am correct there are several people in jail with less serious charges then this guy. Must be because he is a celeb.
