Rap music mogul Suge Knight has a date with a Las Vegas judge after he was arrested on traffic warrant and misdemeanor drug charges.
Officer Laura Meltzer says the 46-year-old former Death Row Records executive was stopped driving a black Bentley with California plates around 5:30 p.m. Wednesday on a street just off Flamingo Road west of the Las Vegas Strip.
Knight was accused of making an unsafe lane change and possession of less than one ounce of a controlled substance and released from jail without bail. He's due March 12 in Las Vegas Municipal Court.
Attorney David Chesnoff has represented Knight in previous Las Vegas cases. He wasn't immediately available for comment.
Celebrity website TMZ first reported the arrest. It says Knight had marijuana with him in the car.
