Wednesday, November 28, 2007 By: Kenny Rodriguez
Cash Money rapper Birdman was arrested yesterday, along with 15 other people, and charged with possession of marijuana after they were pulled over by Tennessee police for a traffic violation.
Birdman, born Bryan Williams, was driving in a RV with several friends and family members when police stopped the vehicle after it forced a tractor trailer into the emergency lane on Interstate 81.
Kingsport Police Cpl. Tim Horne said he smelled marijuana from inside the rented RV. After searching the vehicle, he discovered almost a pound of marijuana in a trash can.
According to reports, a total of 16 people were detained – including Williams, his wife Brittany, his brother Ronald, road manager Shahid Muhammad, promoter Casey Collins, and music promoter Ovide Antoine.
Horne added that an assault rifle, a handgun, and a magazine for a .45-caliber handgun were also found in the RV, although no weapons charges have been filed.
The group was reportedly traveling from New Orleans to New York for a BET network shoot.
