![Ludacris’ Custody Judge Calls Decision a ‘Win-Win’ + Tamika Fuller Issues Statement… [VIDEO]](http://cdn.straightfromthea.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Ludacris-Tamika-Fuller-2015-520x500.png)
The Atlanta rapper formerly known as Tity Boi was popped for allegedly carrying a weapon.
But you’ll never believe what the “weapon” was!
Details…
2Chainz wasn’t packing brass knuckles when he was arrested today in New York … it was just a harmless 4-finger ring — this according to sources close to the hip hop star.
The ring says “DOPE” in big letters — and sources tell TMZ, 2 Chainz rocked it no problem at an Atlanta club called the Velvet Room on Sunday.
According to sources close to the rapper, Chainz then flew to NYC without incident — with the ring in his luggage — but when he tried to leave the city today, TSA at LaGuardia Airport mistook the jewelry for a dangerous weapon.
2 Chainz was arrested at the airport for possession of a criminal weapon around 1:45pm this afternoon when officials found the 4-finger ring in his bag.
The rapper is currently still in custody as the NYC Port Authority PD works this all out.
Somebody get Diddy on line one…
*UPDATE* 2 Chainz is out and recently boarded a private jet to his next destination…

I’m ridin around and i’m gettin in trouble.
This ain’t the first time this has happened to people. TSA at one airport will let it slide while the TSA at another airport will act all crazy. It’s ridiculous. If he’d known that it was dangerous when he went through TSA the first time, he woulda left it at home.
And I’m guessing they arrested him for it because he was a rapper. Ya’ll know good and well that 2 don’t get into trouble.
4finger ring
Jelous police, cause they can’t shine like him…tHis boy tity is killing us…some body get didy on the phone, tell that is boy is in trouble..quiikly hehhee
Damn! Im glad hes out…
He should not let this go. He needs to pursue a lawsuit. People get away with so much when it comes to blacks because we fail to take legal action.
You have me over here rolling on the ground lol! Lawsuit, but you should know going to NYC, only the sound of the police wants to be the only one with a weapon!
damn thats crazy, i hate the police… they always on somebody head for the wrong reason, go do some real work…
Since the 80’s 4 finger rings were illegal…thats why thry dont sell it here.
yes they are illegal in some states
4 finger rings are illegal in some states and did you know that nunchucks (what Bruce Lee used) are illegal everywhere and been that way for awhile?
What’s happening is the white man is assuring that colored people have no weapons to defend themselves. The white man controls who can legally own a firearm or stun gun or even pepper spray! That leaves us to obtain weapons illegally which so happens to get us in trouble with the law.
Had 2Chainz been white like Eminem, it would be no problem but because he is a black rapper (with dreads and ink) then he is assumed to have a weapon instead of a ring. Wake up y’all!
Hi, Neat post. There is a problem with your site in internet explorer, would check this… IE still is the market leader and a large portion of people will miss your excellent writing due to this problem.
