Soulja Boy is facing more legal drama after he was arrested on a weapons charge in Los Angeles in the early hours of Sunday morning.
According to reports, the rapper was arrested following a traffic stop for being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm when a gun was spotted in the car.
Soulja Boy was previously convicted of carrying a loaded gun in 2014.
Back in April, a jury in Los Angeles found him liable for sexual battery and assault. He was ordered to cough up $4 million to a former assistant-turned-girlfriend, who alleged he became violent toward her as their once-professional relationship turned romantic.
“Today, I stand before you deeply disappointed in the verdict delivered in my case,” he said after the verdict was announced. “I firmly believe that the decision made in court was not based on facts or substantial evidence, but rather on factors that were outside of my control.”
He added, “The truth was overshadowed by individuals such as the jury who were not present during the events in question and I feel that the system allowed external influences to shape the outcome.”
