American rapper, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie has been arrested on drug and weapons charges, following an investigation into a New Jersey nightclub shooting.
The Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office confirmed the news to XXL magazine on Tuesday, December 8, that the Bronx-bred rapper—legal name Julius Dubose—has been charged with one count of unlawful possession of a handgun and one count of possession of marijuana.
The charges came after authorities executed a search warrant at his home in Dearest, New Jersey, as part of an investigation into the shooting incident that took place outside RAIN nightclub in Teaneck around midnight Friday, when A Boogie was celebrating his 25th birthday.
During a search at A Boogie’s residence, police reportedly found and seized a Ruger. 380-caliber handgun, a Glock. 40-caliber handgun, an H&K 9mm handgun, and a Smith and Wesson 9mm handgun, as well as “hollow point bullets, various high capacity magazines, marijuana, hashish oil edibles and drug paraphernalia commonly associated with the distribution of [drugs].”
A Boogie’s manager, Samblou Camara, 27, and his security guard, 33-year-old Quashaun Hagler, were also arrested.
Police searched Camara’s Bergenfield home and found marijuana as well as hashish oil edibles; he was charged with possession of marijuana.
Hagler, who was reportedly at A Boogie’s residence during the raid, was reportedly charged with three counts of unlawful possession of a handgun and one count of possession of a large-capacity magazine.
All three men have since been released after their arrest, pending their appearances in court.
