East coast rapper DMX (Earl Simmons) has been arrested in Florida after failing to appear in court. The rapper was due to show up in court on the 12th resulting in a warrant for his arrest being issued.
The rapper was arrested outside of a Wal-Mart superstore based in Florida (north Miami beach) on Thursday the 14th of August. He was originally picked up for having parked in a disabled space however police upon enquiring found out that the 37 year old had a warrant out for his arrest as well. This resulted in him being taken away.
The rappers public defender, Charles Kozelka, stated that DMX has failed to appear in court due to him being in a Miami based Rehab instead and then stated that DMX was also about to turn himself in at the airport. Whether it’s the truth though…..who knows, damn unlikely though.
The arrest of the east coast rapper was his sixth of the year. Unlikely to be his last it may have to result in a sentence.
