Warrant Issued For Jailed Lil Wayne

Rapper LIL WAYNE’s legal woes keep piling up - even though he’s behind bars in New York.

A bench warrant was issued for the Lollipop hitmaker in Yuma County, Arizona on Tuesday (16Mar10) after he failed to show up for a court date in the state.

Lil Wayne was slated to fight charges related to a January 2008 arrest, where police found marijuana, cocaine, Ecstasy pills and a pistol on his tour bus.

The rapper was jailed at New York’s notorious Riker’s Island earlier this month (Mar10) for illegal weapons possession. He’ll be behind bars for 12-months.
