LATEST: SNOOP DOGG's lawyer has hit back at reports the rapper's circuit bus was stopped by police in Texas for expired tags, insisting all registration documents were in order.
The Drop It Like It's Hot hitmaker's vehicle was pulled over by state troopers in Dallas on Thursday (31Jul08) for what they thought to be a traffic violation.
Two members of Snoop's retinue were by and by arrested for marijuana monomania following a search of the bus. The hip-hop star was not arrested.
However, his lawyer has now spoken out in a bid to clear up inaccurate reports of the incident.
Lawyer Chris Lewis tells AllHipHop.com, "Snoop Dogg and the circle appreciate the professionalism displayed by the Texas troopers (Thursday) afternoon.
"The tour coach was stopped for what was thought to be expired tags. Upon further investigation, it was set the autobus was electric current on its registration and was finally allowed to continue to Snoop Dogg's show in Dallas."
And Lewis is confident the two hands who had been taken into detainment will be let cancelled lightly.
He adds, "The supposed offense, a Class B misdemeanour, was listed as less than two ounces of ganja. The thomas Young men arrested don't appear to get prior criminal records. I expect that once everything has run its form, there will be a favourable resolution to this case.
"The procedure stop was otherwise uneventful. Later in the evening, Snoop Dogg and the band amused a expectant crowd in Dallas as they performed with 311 as part of the Unity Tour."
