Rapper Lil Wayne has been released from jail following an arrest that took place over the weekend on the Texas border. The Phoenix New Times reports that Lil Wayne and his entourage were released a day after their arrest in Falfurrias, Texas.
Lil Wayne’s tour bus was stopped at a Falfurrias checkpoint and upon searching the tour bus officials found an undisclosed amount of marijuana.
Wayne and over 10 other people on the bus were immediately arrested. No charges were made and they were later released.
Ironically, this weekends arrest comes only days after it was announced that Lil Wayne will serve a one-year sentence in a New York jail beginning February 9, 2010. A sentence that stems from a weapons possession charge that Wayne received in October 2009.
Neither Lil Wayne or a representative for the rapper have commented on this latest incident.
