2 Chainz Arrested In New York For Possession of a Criminal Weapon

It seems as though 2 Chainz was arrested for possession of a criminal weapon, specifically brass knuckles. According to RR however, the charges have nothing to do with brass knuckles at all. I guess we have to wait and see where this goes.

Kanye West's rap prodigy 2 Chainz was arrested at LaGuardia Airport in New York today ... after cops say he was packin' brass knuckles in his carry-on bag ... TMZ has learned.

2 Chainz -- real name Tauheed Epps (who also goes by the name Tity Boi) -- was entering the Delta terminal to fly to a show in North Carolina ... when the TSA discovered brass knuckles in his bag.

Law enforcement tells TMZ ... police were called to the scene ... and 2 Chainz was taken into custody for misdemeanor possession of a criminal weapon at 1:45 local time. (TMZ)

I'm mad they called him Kanye's prodigy, anyway, the charges are apparently already dropped, so all I have to say is WTF. Big Sean's response below.
