Snoop Dogg was arrested yesterday (Nov. 28) in Burbank, CA, as
he was leaving NBC studios after a performance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
Snoop, 35, and two associates were pulling out of NBC studios around 6pm, when
police stopped their vehicle, armed with a search warrant. All three men were
arrested after police found a handgun, and small amounts of marijuana and cocaine
in the vehicle.

Snoop was arrested for investigation of being a convicted felon in possession
of a firearm, possessing cocaine, transporting marijuana and having a false
compartment in his vehicle. Also arrested were Michael Mingo, 33 and Lovell
Polk, 36. According to police, both men are acknowledged gang members who are
associates of the rapper. Snoop Dogg, who dropped his new album Tha Blue Carpet
Treatment, was released on $60,000 bail.

Police obtained the search warrant for last night’s arrest, after an investigation
that started when Snoop Dogg was arrested in October at Bob Hope Airport. In
that incident, police found a gun and marijuana in the rapper’s car,

In September, Snoop Dogg was arrested for carrying a deadly weapon at John
Wayne Airport. In that case, the rapper was accused of trying to sneak a collapsible
baton in his luggage through an airport security check point. Snoop Dogg is
slated to appear in court Monday (Dec. 4) to answer the charges at John Wayne
Airport, while the rapper will be arraigned for the latest charges on Jan. 11.
