Breaking: Lil Wayne Detained By Texas Border Patrol

Lil’ Wayne is currently being detained at an interior border checkpoint in Texas, this according to a Border Patrol supervisor.

The Border Patrol is not releasing details about the incident — but we’re told Wayne has not been arrested. We’re told officials are still investigating.

Officials tell us 11 other members of Wayne’s entourage are also being detained.

The incident went down in the city of Falfurrias — roughly 100 miles from the Mexican border.

Props TMZ, and we will update this post as the story develops… didn’t something like this happen last time in Canada?

Here is an update from TMZ saying: “Weed is a factor in the Lil Wayne incident”:

Lil’ Wayne was rollin’ through Texas with marijuana on multiple tour buses, this according to the U.S. Border Patrol.

Border Patrol agents tell TMZ a random search of the vehicles uncovered a pot stash on two buses — but we’re told no drugs were found on Wayne’s person … or anyone else in the entourage.

Officials tell us a drug-sniffing K-9 unit picked up the scent outside the bus. Agents then walked the dogs onto the bus, where they located the weed.

As we first reported, Wayne and 11 members of his entourage are being detained at an internal B.P. checkpoint in southern Texas.

So far, no arrests have been made.

    Well worst case situation is they arrest the person that owns the tour bus…but people usually lease the busses, and hopefully, they didn’t lease it in Wayne’s name.

    @ silk & ceez

    Nobody can read what the fuck you wrote silk. Weed ain’t the downfall of anyone, your illiteracy is the downfall of our fucking country. And you Ceez, he knows what the fuck he’s doin. He has rights the same as anyone else, and he’s right to keep doing what he thinks is right. Fuck all the people who think Wayne is stupid or deserves to be persecuted. He’s just doing what he knows and that is being the best rapper that the world has ever seen. Nobody can take that from him and everyone should just respect what he does. No matter what. Just sayin.

    All you guys defending lil wayne, it does not say that he was to perform that very same night he was detained. He had a pratically sold out concert. He left thousands of fans dissapointed for his actions. When will you learn lil wayne? The actions you make today will effect your tomorrow. His concert was cancelled and supposebly his concert will be today. I wouldn’t be surprised if people booed at him for not showing up. I know many people who have a job who had to get the day off or pull some kind of stunt to go see him. Unfortunately, many of those people who have asked for the day off, many of them work today. Good one!

    Lil Wayne’ you shud tour the UK especially Liverpool Echo Arena were our girls will show you the time of your life , ticket sales will be high and sold out in less than 72 hours. it would raise money investments through the roof,at CashMoneyRecords there are many many fans that are willing to pays thousands of pounds , dollars whatever the amount to see there biggest star , the best rapper alive in front of them giving them the entertainment of their life, i believe that it will be a big hit and a big success towards you and CashMoneyRecords im 15 years old i have been rapping since the age of eight you have inspired my future and i don’t think you’r fans here in the UK are getting the most spectacular side of you to see what excitement you can bring to the world touring the US isnt that great when you think of it YOU need to be touring the world..
