Suge Knight was arrested in Las Vegas yesterday after a traffic stop gone bad and cops say he was carrying weed on him at the time.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the former Death Row rap mogul was pulled over at 5:34 PM Wednesday for making an unsafe lane change in his black Bentley.

But when cops ran Suge’s name in the system they noticed multiple warrants out for his arrest, stemming from minor traffic violations.

After a quick search, cops say they found a small amount of marijuana in Suge’s possession. Knight was eventually hauled to a nearby jail for processing. He was released a short time later.

And things could get WORSE for Knight. Suge is currently on 3 years unsupervised probation for driving on a suspended license.
