Canadian rapper Tory Lanez was arrested on both misdemeanor and felony offences.
Yesterday (April 12), the Canadian artist was arrested by Miramar police in Florida’s Broward County for drug and gun charges.
He was charged with carrying a concealed firearm, possession of cannabis 20 grams or less, failure to register a motor vehicle, driving without a valid driver’s license and failure to show proof of liability insurance. The cannabis charge is a first degree misdemeanor, while the firearm possession charge is a third degree felony.
Some users online have posted video of Tory showing off weed and guns on his Snapchat. It’s unclear when the Snap was posted, but you can see it below.
Lanez has been one of Canada’s more successful hip-hop artists over the last few years, and he should be poised to do even bigger things in the future. Lanez’s album, titled I Told You, debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 when it dropped last year. Songs like “Say It” and “LUV” reached huge heights, and earlier this year he released two new mixtapes—New Toronto 2 and Chixtape 4.
Earlier this year, footage surfaced of a man who looked like Tory getting involved in a street fight. Lanez later denied that it was him, tweeting, “There is no video of me fighting in the street lol … nice try tho … ps: that nigga got ZERO hands.”
Tory is scheduled to be on Future’s Nobody Safe tour with Migos, Young Thug, Kodak Black and A$AP Ferg. The tour is set to start in Memphis on May 4.
XXL has reached out to Tory’s team for comment.
