Rapper Sean Combs was arrested Saturday and charged with driving with a suspended license after police pulled him over while he was riding a scooter along Ocean Drive, a South Beach strip. Police pulled Combs over about 6 p.m. for making an illegal lane change, said Miami Beach Police Sgt. Peter Bitume.
A driver’s license check showed Combs’ license was suspended, so he was arrested and released 20 minutes later after he signed a promise to appear in court, Bitume said.
The charge is a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $500 and possibly jail time, Bitume said.
Puffy was later acquitted of all charges.
