Trick Daddy found himself in a tough spot back in January when cops pulled him over for reckless driving, and he was found to be under the influence and in possession of cocaine. TMZ has gotten ahold of the body cam footage from the cops who arrested Trick Daddy in Miami earlier this year, and the video even shows the moment that the officers found the white powdery substance believed to be cocaine in one of Trick's dollar bills.
The clip begins with the officers approaching Trick's vehicle, where he can be seen sitting in the driver's seat. Trick appears to have bloodshot eyes and a slurred speech while one of the cops questions him about his evening. He confesses to having consumed a few drinks earlier in the evening, "about 2-3 hours ago," but when the officers ask him to perform a sobriety test by attempting to walk in a straight line, he does not successfully complete it. After they handcuff him for driving under the influence, one of the officers begins counting his money, and discovers that a white powdery substance has fallen out of one of the crumpled up dollar bills. Another officer asks Trick, whose real name is Maurice Young, "what is that?" although it's clear what the officers believe it to be: cocaine residue.
He was booked into Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami, but was later released on a $6,000 bond that same day. Trick got clowned for his mugshot from the incident, but went on to reveal that he looks to be in such rough shape because he's been suffering from lupus.

On Friday (March 13), Broner was reportedly arrested once again in Miami Beach on a DUI charge. TMZ states that it was approximately 8:45 p.m. when police pulled Broner over. According to the officers on the scene, it was clear that the boxer was under the influence so they took him into custody. Broner has been placed on an eight-hour hold and will remain behind bars until his release time of 4:00 a.m. Saturday (March 14) morning. His bail has been set at $1,000.
In addition to these two recent arrests, the 30-year-old professional fighter was also arrested on battery charges back in April 2019. A month prior to that, Broner was cuffed after yelling at police officers in Miami. In December 2018, he was sued by a jeweler for allegedly not paying a $1 million debt, and he was arrested two days before Christmas in 2018 for failing to appear in court after being arrested in 2017 for driving without a license, registration, or insurance.
BJ Penn Being Investigated For DUI After Horrific Car Crash: Report
BJ Penn was most recently caught on video in a street fight.
Over the past few months, UFC legend BJ Penn has been in the news for all of the wrong reasons. Back in August, Penn was caught on camera getting into a street fight in Miami. Just a month prior to that, Penn was seen battling a strip club bouncer outside of an establishment. Dana White also came out and banned Penn from any further fights until he gets his act together.
Now, things have reportedly gone from bad to worse for Penn. According to TMZ, Penn was driving in Hawaii recently when his truck flipped multiple times on the highway. Penn was brought to the hospital where he was quickly released. In the aftermath of the accident, Penn is being investigated for driving under the influence.

PnB Rock Totals BMW In Alleged Street Race, Arrested For DUI
PnB Rock totals his vehicle in what police said was a street race.
PnB Rock has found himself with trouble with the law this week. According to TMZ, the Philadelphia rapper was booked for a DUI after he was allegedly involved in a street race crash that resulted in his BMW getting totaled.
Police said PnB Rock was arrested in Burbank, CA after they were already suspicious that he was driving under the influence. PnB Rock was reportedly driving recklessly through the streets before plowing his upscale BMW into a row of parked cars and crashed into three vehicles in total. From the looks of the actual car, PnB Rock should be thankful that he's okay. The vehicle is entirely totaled.
Police said they were already observing his vehicle -- a white BMW sedan -- while it was racing against a blue and silver Rolls Royce Wraith. PnB Rock was reportedly driving at upwards of 100 MPH on a local street.
The race itself was short due to the crash. The rapper's BMW smashed into the three parked cars and one of the vehicles ended up flipping on its side. There was reportedly a woman in one of the vehicles but thankfully, she didn't face any major injuries and was able to get out of her car.
Ultimately, the police found weed on him, which he wasn't charged for since it is California, but the vehicle he was driving in smelled like it. He was booked for DUI and reckless driving. He was released on $100K bail.
Trick Daddy Spotted At His Miami Restaurant Less Than 24 Hours After DUI Arrest
Trick’s first stop was his restaurant in Miami Gardens.
It looks like Trick Daddy‘s recent stint in the slammer on Saturday was a brief affair, as he was spotted later that same day out and about in Miami. As reported, Trick Daddy was arrested on Saturday morning after police responded to a report of a driver hitting signs and running red lights in a Range Rover in Miami. Police noted that he “appeared to be asleep behind the wheel,” and when he was woken by a knock on the window, he “had a slurred speech, bloodshot, watery, glassy eyes, and the officer smelled alcohol on his breath.” Trick admitted to having consumed about five drinks earlier in the evening and agreed to take a field sobriety test, but ultimately failed it. He was taken to the local police station, where cops claimed to have discovered cocaine remnants inside a dollar bill that was found in Trick’s possessions. He was booked into Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on Saturday morning, with a bond set at $5,000 for cocaine possession and $1,000 for driving under the influence.
It looks like he was able to get his bond paid and his freedom back, as he was seen stopping by his soul food restaurant, Sunday’s Eatery, later that same day. He took the time to take some photos with fans at the Miami Gardens joint, which he opened on September 14th of last year. Trick is currently starring in the latest season of Love & Hip Hop: Miami.
Trick Daddy Arrested On DUI & Cocaine Possession Charges In Miami
His bond is set at $6,000 total between both charges.
Trick Daddy found himself in trouble with the law again when he was arrested in Miami on DUI and cocaine possession charges this weekend. The Miami Herald reported that a police officer had responded to a report of a driver hitting signs and running red lights in a Range Rover on Saturday. Upon approaching the vehicle, the officer noted that the driver “appeared to be asleep behind the wheel.” The officer knocked on the window, waking the man, who was later identified by his driver’s license as Maurice Samuel Young, known by his stage name, Trick Daddy. He reportedly had a slurred speech, bloodshot, watery, glassy eyes, and the officer smelled alcohol on his breath. Trick Daddy told the officer that he had consumed about five drinks hours that night at a club in Miami Gardens and was dropping someone off before heading home. He agreed to a field sobriety test, but was unable to successfully complete it.
Police later found cocaine inside a dollar bill while Trick Daddy was putting his possessions in a plastic bag at the local police station. He was then booked into Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center, with a bond of $5,000 on the cocaine possession charge and $1,000 on the driving under the influence charge. This is the third time Trick Daddy has been arrested for cocaine possession. In 1991 he went to prison for more than two years for cocaine possession as well as for carrying a concealed firearm and violating probation. He was charged again with cocaine possession in 2014, along with possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon and driving with a suspended license, though he was later bonded out on that occasion.
