Too much riding around and getting it will eventually lead you into the long-arms of the law. Rapper 2 Chainz was arrested at LaGuardia Airport in New York today after authorities found brass knuckles in his carry-on bag, reports TMZ.

2 Chainz — real name Tauheed Epps (who also goes by the name Tity Boi) — was entering the Delta terminal to fly to a show in North Carolina … when the TSA discovered brass knuckles in his bag.

Law enforcement tells TMZ … police were called to the scene … and 2 Chainz was taken into custody for misdemeanor possession of a criminal weapon at 1:45 local time.

Is it possible that the “Brass Nuckles” are just another customized piece of jewlery 2 Chainz wears? Discuss below.
