Lloyd Banks, Young Buck Avoid Gun Charges
Saturday, November 11, 2006 By: Kenny Rodriguez
Felony gun charges against G-Unit rappers Lloyd Banks and Young Buck were dropped on Wednesday, stemming from their arrest last year at a concert in New York’s Madison Square Garden.
According to police, Banks and Buck were riding in a van with several other men in August 2005, when the vehicle was pulled over after running a red light in midtown Manhattan.
Officers said they discovered a loaded handgun and another weapon in the van.
But prosecutors asked a judge to dismiss the charges after an investigation determined that neither Lloyd Banks nor Young Buck were in possession of the guns, said a district attorney’s spokesperson.
Meanwhile an unnamed passenger in the van has pleaded guilty in the case, while another remains under indictment.
