MTV is reporting that rapper Jim Jones was arrested in New York on Wednesday for driving with a suspended license, citing TMZ as their source for the story.
An official for the New York Police Department could not confirm any details “yet,” MTV News reports. A rep for the Harlem artist confirmed that Jones was still in custody as of press time and had not been charged. The rep told MTV News that Jones would be out “in an hour.”
Late last year, Jones pleaded guilty to an assault charge stemming from another traffic incident, when he attacked another driver. He was sentenced to anger-management classes. Currently, Jones is promoting his next solo effort, Capo, due next month.
Jones and the rest of the Dipset crew are reportedly still negotiating a deal for the collective to put out their next album on Interscope Records. Cam’ron, Juelz Santana and Jones have been in the studio with legendary producer, Dr. Dre.
