Willie Nelson Busted For Possession
Willie Nelson was issued a misdemeanor citation for drug possession early today when his tour bus was stopped in Saint Martin Parish, Louisiana.
TMZ spoke with a spokesperson for the Louisiana State Police who said "The tour bus was stopped on a common interstate vehicle inspection, and when the trooper approached the bus door a strong odor of marijuana was detected. The occupants were not brought to jail because it was not accepting [inmates] on misdemeanor charges."
During a search of the bus, police said approximately one-and-one-half pounds of marijuana and approximately two-tenths of a pound of mushrooms were located on the bus.
The 73 year-old country legend, the driver of the bus and three members of his band were issued citations for possession of mushrooms and possession of marijuana and released.
