Did Snoop Sneak A Weapon Into O.C. Airport?

Posted Oct 23rd 2006 3:28PM by TMZ Staff

Snoop D-O-(double)G TMZ has learned that rapper Snoop Doggy Dogg (aka Calvin Broadus) was busted for attempting to carry a weapon through an airport security checkpoint.

According to law enforcement officials, Snoop attempted to walk through an X-ray machine at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, Calif. late last month with a 21" collapsible baton packed in his laptop computer case. Orange County Sheriffs' deputies were called to the scene where they detained the rapper and confiscated the weapon.

Snoop was not arrested, however, and we're told the Sheriffs Department file was sent to the Orange County District Attorney's Office.

The D.A. may decide as early as today whether to file criminal charges against the rapper.

2. Celebrity or not!
He is an adult................and fully aware what the United States has been through the last several years. As long as he has been boarding planes, He also had to be aware of the extensive screening at all airports, and knowing the consequences if caught.
I don't hope no bad bearing on him, but he deserves to get treated as I or anyone else would if we did what he did.
CELEBRITY OR NOT!!

9. A millionaire...isn't the American dream to make it, so you DON'T have to go around carrying weapons like a low-life street thug. Some people just don't get the big picture.... And we have to remain politically correct, right..???

13. Looks like another clone candidate for Dumb Blonde Middle School, where clones aren't discriminated by color, just stupidity. Guess I am now going top have to install an x-ray machine along with the metal detector on the short yellow bus. When will these clones learn that there is reality and then there is the fantasyland theycontinually live in. If he was going to get busted for anything, you would think it would be for trying to sneak in a lighter so he could smoke a little 420 in the back of the short yellow plane, DBMS leases out for field trips. Reality check Snoopy, maybe our DBMS counselor Charlie Brown needs to bitch slap you back into the real world, then maybe you will remeber where you came from and why you are not there any longer.

14. I agree it was wrong of snoop to try and sneak a gun on a airplane. But carolina cracker i think the word you used was uncalled for. There was no reason to use the N word. But seeing your last name i see why you would.. I would think being an adult you would carry yourself with respect for others but i guess that was asking to much from a person who uses words like you did.

15. I'm surprised they didn't find any of his "smoke" in that computer.
