Rick Ross was arrested while driving in Georgia after a police officer found marijuana in his car, according to the Atlanta-Journal Constitution. On Wednesday (June 10), the MMG captain was taken to Fayette County jail and booked on a misdemeanor marijuana charge.

Ross, 39, was stopped on a window tint violation, but the officer smelled a marijuana stench and then found five joints rolled up in the Bentley, said Fayette County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Allen Stevens.

It is unclear if Ross has been released on bond yet.

This is the Miami native’s fourth run-in with the law over weed. He was also arrested in 2008, 2011 and 2013 on marijuana charges.
