Rodney King is famous for being brutally beaten by police officers on tape in 1991. The city of LA broke out into a vicious riot after the unfair verdict of King was read and all officers were acquitted even though they were caught on tape. For King much has not changed, it seems as though he is still having his run-ins.

According to TMZ:

King was pulled over after officers claim they witnessed Rodney committing “multiple infractions” behind the wheel. Cops eventually suspected he was under the influence and arrested him.

After the arrest, King told CNN he was under the influence of a “medical marijuana prescription.”

If convicted, King—who has a prior DUI conviction on his record—could face some serious jail time.

Damn, let’s pray for this brother!
