The vehicle reportedly had a strong smell of marijuana which prompted police to conduct a search. Police also say that they discovered a fully loaded 9mm Smith & Wesson pistol that was located in a bag on the passenger side of his vehicle.
Sheck along with his three passengers was each booked for two felony crimes, including, criminal possession of a loaded firearm and criminal possession of a firearm, and a misdemeanor for possession of marijuana. Sheck was also given a ticket for not having a valid driver’s license.
This is not the first time that the rapper was in trouble with the law. As we previously reported back in February, singer Justine Skye put the rapper on blast and shared that he physically assaulted her while they were in a relationship. Skye detailed multiple incidents of emotional and physical abuse, including head butting, face spitting and stalking. He was not charged.
Sheck has not yet commented on the most recent incident.
