Rapper Offset (real name Kiari Kendrell Cephus) was pulled over for an improper lane change while driving outside of Atlanta, Georgia Friday, according to TMZ.
Once the police had pulled the „Bad and Boujee“ rapper over, they allegedly discovered three handguns and $107,000 in cash, according to TMZ. He was arrested on charges of possession of a firearm by a felon and possession of a weapon during a crime which are both felonies, and possession of marijuana (one ounce or less), and an improper lane change which are both misdemeanors.
Clayton County Police Sgt. Ashanti Marbury confirmed to a local CBS station that an officer had pulled over a Porsche 911 on Friday afternoon for „failing to maintain its lane.“ Once the officer approached the vehicle, the authorities smelled marijuana, which prompted them to search the entire car.
This isn’t Offset’s first brush with the law — he’s currently on probation stemming from a 2015 arrest on drugs and weapons charges, according to Complex.
TMZ reported Saturday morning that the rapper is still behind bars.
The arrest comes just weeks after announcing his marriage to fellow rapper Cardi B and the birth of their daughter, Kulture.
