About those drugs they found on the bus…
Nelly's lawyer tells TMZ there were 15 to 20 people who had access to the bus before the traffic stop and there were multiple people on the bus during the police search adding, "Nelly will not be associated with the contraband that was allegedly discovered."
Police found guns, a small amount of marijuana and a small amount of Ecstasy and 100 small plastic baggies.
Nelly is charged with felony possession of drugs, simple possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. His next hearing is June 9.
Fun Fact: This is not the first time Nelly was caught with drugs on his tour bus. Back in 2012 Nelly was detained in Texas after drug sniffing dogs found heroin and weed on his bus [click here if you missed that].
