Sierra Blanca -
Authorities say they found drugs and a gun on rapper Nelly's tour bus at a West
Texas border checkpoint where several celebrities have been arrested.
Hudspeth County
sheriff's officials said an initial search late on Wednesday turned up small
amounts of marijuana and heroin and a loaded gun.
Authorities say a
second search revealed a duffel bag with about 4.54kg of pot.
Officials say one
of the occupants was arrested after admitting the drugs and gun belonged to
him.
In a statement,
Nelly blamed his staff member. The rapper said, "Neither I nor anyone else
on the tour bus was aware of his decision to bring these."
Previous
drug-related arrests of celebrities at the checkpoint near Sierra Blanca
included Willie Nelson, Snoop Dogg, Fiona Apple and actor Armie Hammer.
