RAPPER PAPERBOY CHARGED WITH DRUG DEALING
Rapper Paperboy was arrested earlier this week after police found $1,200 (GBP600)-worth of marijuana in his car.
The Ditty star - real name Mitchell Johnson - was stopped by Merced, California, authorities on Wednesday (13Jun07) night and a subsequent search of his car revealed his large stash of the illegal drug.
Johnson was taken into police custody and charged with the transportation of marijuana for sale, suspicion of possession and sale of marijuana and possession of more than one ounce of marijuana.
The rapper has reportedly been under police investigation for several weeks, but a search of his West Coast residence shortly after his arrest failed to uncover any further incriminating evidence.
His bail has been set at $20,000 (GBP10,000), according to AllHipHop.com.
