Cops charge Bounty for small bag of weed
A small bag of marijuana is the latest offence on deejay Bounty Killer’s rap sheet.
This, the police confirmed in a statement issued on Sunday and which has even been carried by international news agency, the Associated Press. Referring to the deejay as “Jamaican rapper Bounty Killer”, the AP release stated that the artiste “is in trouble with the police again”. Authorities have charged him with marijuana possession after a traffic stop in New Kingston.
The entertainer whose offstage name is Rodney Price already is being prosecuted on previous charges of illegal possession of a firearm and unlawful wounding and assault.
Police said in a statement Sunday that Price was found with a small bag of marijuana on Thursday.
Price’s attorney could not be reached. A November court appearance is scheduled.
The rapper is best known for the album My Xperience and his collaboration on the song Hey Baby with No Doubt.
