A routine traffic stop involving Offset turned serious when authorities discovered a weapon and drugs in his car.
Channel 2 Action News has confirmed that rapper Offset, of the trio Migos, was arrested Friday on weapon and drug charges.
Clayton County police said the rapper, whose real name is Kiari Cephus, and his bodyguard, Senay Gezahgn, were traveling in Jonesboro when the 2014 Porsche 911 Carrera that Offset was driving was pulled over after an improper lane change on Upper Riverdale Road.
During a search, officers found three handguns, less than 1 ounce of marijuana and more than $107,000 in cash.
Offset was charged with improper lane change; possession of marijuana, less than 1 ounce; possession of a weapon by a convicted felon and possession of a weapon during the commission of a crime.
Due to Cephus current legal status, carrying a gun is a huge no-no.
He and Cardi B welcomed their first child Kulture earlier this month.
