Method Man arrested for drug possession
Method Man was reportedly arrested for drug possession in New York late last week (May 17).
The rapper was pulled over by police en route from Brooklyn to Manhattan after an officer noticed an expired inspection sticker, says the New York Post.
According to the report, Method Man whose real name is Clifford Smith, was driving a 2005 Lincoln Navigator, and when he was pulled over, officer Donald Johnston smelled marijuana smoke and saw two blunts and other drug paraphernalia.
Smith then admitted he had 28 more grams of weed in the car and was arrested and taken into custody in Brooklyn.
He was released a day later on May 18.

Robert Plant plays down Led Zeppelin rumours
Led Zeppelin have denied they will be reuniting for a gig later this year.
There have been rumours the band would reform for a tribute concert for Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun, with John Bonham's son, Jason, taking over the drums.
Bonham died after choking on his own vomit following a drinking session in 1980.
However while not flatly denying the stories, the band's singer Robert Plant cryptically played down chance of a show with his old band.
"If there was one (a reunion), then there wouldn't be enough doctors to support it!" he told reporters at the Rockwave Festival in Greece.
Led Zeppelin have only performed a handful of concerts since they split in 1980, including a disastrous performance at 1985's Live Aid, which they refused to allow on the DVD release. |
