Young Thug has been arrested, according to the Brookhaven Police Department in New York.

TMZ reported on Tuesday that Thug, 26, faced a felony drug charge and a misdemeanour for having tinted windows. Police officers confirmed to Billboard the rapper had been arrested.

Camila Cabello’s “Havana” collaborator has run into problems with the law before. In April of this year, Thug avoided a series of charges stemming from a 2015 police raid of his Sandy Springs, Georgia home. Thug was also cleared of a possible battery case due to a lack of evidence.

Police reportedly discovered weapons and drugs during the raid and charged Thug with a felony cocaine possession, felony marijuana possession and three counts of felony gun possession. Thug’s lawyer was able to clear him of all charges because the raid was conducted without a proper search warrant.

Young Thug’s 2017 album “Beautiful Thugger Girls” received critical acclaim with help from executive producer Drake and features Snoop Dogg, Future and Quavo.
