Wiz Khalifa, who makes his marijuana use very public in his songs, has been arrested for pot possession again, the second time the rapper has been busted in the past ten days.
The bust occurred earlier in the week in Winston-Salem, North Carolina after police smelled the marijuana coming from his tour bus.
According to Winston-Salem Journal, officer J.C. Renew was patrolling the stadium parking lot when he detected a "strong odor of burnt or burning marijuana" coming from Wiz's tour bus.
After obtaining a search warrant, authorities raided Wiz's bus and seized 11.39 grams of marijuana. The Pittsburgh MC was ticketed and released, but 18 to 19 other people were charged with drug possession, including one for felony possession of ecstasy.
Following the incident, Wiz tweeted to his followers, "Made It Out Alive." When one fan wrote to Wiz about the drug charges, he responded, "Hey, it happens."
