Broward County Hip Hop artist Kodak Black has been arrested at the U.S./Canada border on gun and drug possession charges, according to the gossip website TMZ.
U.S. Customs agents arrested Black and three others in his entourage on Wednesday as they tried to enter Lewiston, N.Y., from Queenston, Ontario, via a border-crossing bridge over the Niagara River, the report said.
A Glock 9mm handgun and marijuana were found in the rapper’s Cadillac Escalade and three more guns and marijuana were found with friends who were following him in a Porsche, according to TMZ.
The arrest caused the cancellation of a concert in Boston where angry fans started shouting and rocking a tour bus when they discovered Kodak Black was a no show.
Black, whose real name is Dieuson Octave, has been arrested several times on weapons and drug charges, records show.
