Two members of rapper Snoop Dogg's entourage were arrested on Thursday after a drug bust on his tour bus in Dallas, Texas, according to reports.

State troopers pulled over the bus because it was sporting expired stickers.

Two people were arrested for marijuana possession, and taken to nearby Navarro County Jail.

Snoop was not arrested and is slated to perform in Dallas on Thursday as scheduled.


Snoop's lawyers released this press release:

Lawyer: Tags on Snoop Dog pot-bust bus were good


DALLAS (AP) — A lawyer says a bus carrying hip-hop artist Snoop Dogg did not have expired tags in a stop that led to two people on board charged with marijuana possession.


Attorney Chris Lewis, who represents the two men charged with misdemeanor possession, told The Associated Press on Friday that he saw the bus and was in contact with the driver.


Lewis says he believes Snoop Dogg was asleep when Texas troopers Thursday pulled over the bus on Interstate 45 in Corsicana. DPS said the bus was examined for an expired registration sticker.


Ethan Calhoun, 27, and Kevin Barkey, 26, both of the Los Angeles area, were arrested, then later freed on $1,500 bond each.


Snoop Dogg, whose birth name is Cordozar Calvin Broadus Jr., was not arrested. He appeared in concert Thursday night in Dallas.
