We’re so upset to hear that T.I. and wife ‘Tiny’ were arrested Sept. 2 in West Hollywood! L.A. County Sheriff’s deputies searched the rapper’s car and took the couple into custody!

Just when T.I. thought his legal troubles were behind him, the multi-platinum-selling artist was arrested Sept. 2, along with wife Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, for alleged “possession of a controlled substance.” TMZ is reporting that a small amount of ecstasy was found in the car and the pills are being “tested.”

T.I., 29 and Tameka, 36, were pulled over on Sunset Blvd. around 10:30 p.m. by The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. It’s unclear why the couple was initially pulled over, but reports claim authorities smelled marijuana coming from their Maybach. RadarOnline.com reports that after the LASD searched the luxury vehicle, the two were arrested and booked at the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Station.

The longtime couple was married July 30, and T.I. just recently finished his seven month prison sentence for federal weapons charges. The Grammy winner and Tameka were held on a bail of $10,000 and released around 4 a.m. PDT.
