Famous Dex Arrested For Gun Possession In North Hollywood

Famous Dex is having a rough week. The rapper was arrested after a car he was riding in was pulled over by LAPD on Tuesday night.

According to TMZ, Dex was in the backseat of a car police stopped in North Hollywood for not having rear plates. Once the car was stopped, Dex attempted to walk away, but officers detained him and searched the vehicle and passengers, determining that someone in the car with Dex was on probation.

During the car search, sources told TMZ that a loaded gun was found under Dex’s seat, so cops arrested him for carrying a concealed firearm, booked him on the felony charge, and set his bail at $35,000. He is currently still behind bars.

Just last week, Dex had a different encounter with police after he was allegedly robbed at gunpoint for his $50,000 watch and some cash in the San Fernando Valley.
