People have been protesting world wide about the verdict in the George Zimmerman case, one of the biggest states to react is California, where rapper Nipsey Hussle joined a rally for Trayvon Martin [yesterday]. The west coast rapper was ‘suspected’ to have a weapon and handcuffed by over zealous officers, then released once they realized he didn’t have a weapon.
TMZ reports:
Cops came down on rapper Nipsey Hussle in a big way Tuesday night in the middle of a Trayvon Martin protest rally … handcuffing him after suspecting he was brandishing a gun. Law enforcement sources tell us … LAPD cops saw Nipsey doing something that made them believe he was walking around with a firearm.
They descended on the rapper and cuffed him, but quickly determined he did NOT have a gun and they let him go. It’s unclear if Hussle was part of the rally, which took place in Leimert Park — the scene of violence the night before.
