Soulja Boy Arrested

Per Access Atlanta, Hip-hop phenom Soulja Boy is in a Carroll County jail for marijuana possession, police say. The newly-minted 21-year-old, also known as DeAndre Cortez Way, was traveling west on I-20 earlier this morning with four other men when their Cadillac Escalade was pulled over in Temple, about 20 miles east of the Alabama state line. Temple Police spokeswoman officer Dana Rampy said the policeman who made the stop searched the car and found “a substantial amount” of marijuana, cash and handguns in the vehicle. Way and his four travel mates were each charged with marijuana possession with intent to distribute, and were taken to the Carroll County Jail. “It was a lot of marijuana,” Rampy told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, although she could not disclose the exact amount. “All of the individuals were very cooperative,” she said. source
