Kodak Black Arrested in Florida After Police Discover Oxycodone in His Car
Written by SOURCE on July 16, 2022
Kodak Black was pulled over by cops on Friday, and he was arrested after authorities discovered 31 oxycodone pills and $74,960 in cash during a search.
As TMZ reported, law enforcement sources said that the rapper was riding in a Dodge Durango in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida when they spotted what was believed to be illegal window tints. Officers pulled him over, and searched the car after they reportedly smelled marijuana. During the search, they recovered 31 oxycodone pills and the cash, and law enforcement sources added that his license and tags were also expired.
He’s since been taken to Broward County jail, and has been booked on possession of a controlled substance without prescription and trafficking in oxycodone.
Kodak’s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, shared a statement following the arrest. “Never judge a case based on an arrest,” he wrote. “There are always additional facts and circumstances that give rise to a defense, especially in this case. We will get him a bond today and move forward with resolving the matter quickly.”
Kodak was arrested on New Year’s Eve on trespassing charges, but the case was later dropped. In more recent months, he’s been busy releasing music and performing. He even indicated in June that he has enough unreleased music with Drake that the pair could drop a collaborative album.
