Snoop Dogg was arrested in Texas this weekend after a drug-sniffing dog uncovered marijuana on his tour bus. Law enforcement sources said Snoop’s tour bus was stopped at a border patrol checkpoint in Sierra Blanca a small town in West Texas where Willie Nelson was popped for weed back in 2010. The border patrol ran a standard inspection of the bus with the dog when the animal alerted the agents to a possible hit in a waste basket in the back of the vehicle. The agents claim they found a red prescription bottle with several joints inside. We’re told the bottle contained under a half-ounce of weed.
Cops say Snoop admitted the dope belonged to him. Snoop has a prescription for cannabis in California, but law enforcement tells us, there is a zero tolerance policy for weed in Texas unless you are smuggling it in from Mexico then the cops will look the other way. Snoop was issued a citation for misdemeanor drug possession and released. If convicted on the drug charge, Snoop could face up to 180 days in jail.
