Lil Wayne was arrested near Yuma, Arizona around 6:30 this morning on three felony counts: possession of dangerous drugs, possession of narcotics and possession of drug paraphernalia.

The Drug Enforcement Agency was involved in the arrest. Lil' Wayne's tour bus went through a US Border Patrol checkpoint when the narcotics were allegedly found, that's when the DEA was called in.

Wayne is currently in the custody of the Yuma County Sheriff's Department, where he'll be held pending his arraignment at 9:00 AM PT.

I will keep you posted!!
