2 Chainz arrested after tour bus pulled over in Oklahoma

Rapper 2 Chainz has been arrested again after his tour bus was pulled over in Oklahoma City Thursday morning.

NewsOK reports that the hip hop star, born Tauhed Epps, was among 11 people arrested after the bus was pulled over by police and they refused to get out. Authorities said that officers with a drug interdiction task had pulled over the bus on Interstate 40 when officers saw their broken taillight. An officer spoke with the driver and smelled marijuana.

Police Sgt. Jennifer Wardlow said that while the driver did get out when the officer began asking about drug use, he locked the door as he left the bus. Then, when asked, the people still in the bus refused to come out. Police then towed the bus to a nearby station with the men still inside.

Police charged the 11 men with “interfering with the police process.”

Back in February, 2 Chainz was arrested for marijuana possession, but was later found not guilty. One of the other men arrested in Oklahoma, Stephen Boykin, was also on the tour bus in February. In June, he was arrested for felony narcotics possession at LAX.

2 Chainz responded to the Oklahoma charges on Twitter.
