Snoop Dogg Detained by Police In Sweden
Snoop Dogg was arrested Saturday night after performing a concert in the Swedish city of Uppsala. The rapper was made to undergo a drug test which came back negative. Police are claiming that the rapper seemed intoxicated at the time however, Snoop believes it was a case of “racial profiling.”
A police spokesperson released a statement about the incident to The Guardian, “Police carrying out roadside controls noticed that Snoop Dogg seemed to be under the influence of narcotics. He was arrested and taken to the police station to take a urine test. The incident lasted several minutes. Once the test was carried out, he left.”
Snoop has been arrested for possession of marijuana in the past; such as the incident in 2012 where a police dog in Texas found the drug stashed in a waste basket. Although the rapper has never been shy about his use of drugs and does occasionally put his drinking and smoking in song lyrics, he is not sitting quietly on this false accusation.
After the incident Snoop Dogg took to Instagram and began posting videos of how he felt he had been racially profiled and vowed never to return to Sweden. No apology has been issued as of yet to the rapper from the police in Sweden.
