DMX Arrested For Weed Possession

DMX was arrested in South Carolina last night all while professing his innocence and experiencing a mild medical emergency. According to TMZ, X was pulled over for an illegal U-turn but he wasn't actually driving, a friend was at the wheel. 

Police say they found weed in the vehicle, and busted X on an outstanding warrant. In video footage from the scene the former Ruff Ryder repeatedly denies that he and the woman driving did anything wrong. "This ain't no normal traffic stop!" he yells.

From there, X questions why so many cops are at the scene and claims he maybe the victim of a set up adding, "It was legal, they got nothing."

X  also suffered a small asthma attack during his arrest, and had to be treated by paramedics.

A minor health scare and verbal protests weren't enough to stop the legal process, however. The 42-year-old was taken to jail in Greer Country, SC, and will likely get 15 days in custody which could be shaved down to 10 days for good behavior, law enforcement sources say.    

He is scheduled to appear in court sometime today.
