DMX is Arrested for Driving Without a License Again

After facing several charges of driving without a license in 2011, DMX was arrested on Wednesday (February 13) on the same charge. This time, his 5-year-old daughter was reportedly in the car.
According to law enforcement, the 42-year-old rapper was booked at the Spartanburg County jail in South Carolina around 2 a.m. A few hours later, he appeared before a judge, paid his fine, and was released.

Speaking to a local Fox station, the "Party Up" spitter recounted, " They watched me at the gas station and get in the car. They followed me around the corner, pulled me over, put the cuffs on me, and brought me here. I paid the money, when I could have just paid the money right there on the spot. Basically it was just five hours wasted for nothing. I don't have a court date or a court appearance."
Since 1998, his brushes with the law include driving under the influence, impersonating a federal agent, criminal possession of a weapon, drug possession, animal cruelty, and assault with a deadly weapon.

South African Olympic & Paralympic Athlete Oscar Pistorius Arrested for Allegedly Shooting his Girlfriend Dead

Oscar Pistorius, the South African Olympic and Paralympic athlete famously known as the “Blade Runner” was arrested this morning after his girlfriend was shot dead at his home in Pretoria.

Pistorius, 26, is alleged to have killed his 30-year-old girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, who died of gunshot wounds at his home this morning. The Telegraph reports that he shot her thinking she was an intruder and the shooting could have been a result of a Valentine’s Day surprise gone wrong.

However, Guardian reports that Police spokeswoman Denise Beukes said earlier reports that the suspect had been surprised by his girlfriend and had thought she was an intruder did not come from police. She said there had been reports from neighbours of shouting and screaming coming from the house earlier in the evening. She also added that police had been called to the house on previous occasions after reports of “a domestic nature”.

Pistorius was believed to have shot his girlfriend, a model, in the head and arm. Guardian reports that she was shot four times.

The Police said they have opened investigations into the murder case and will charge him to court. “We found a 9mm pistol at the scene. A 26-year-old man was taken into custody,” a police spokeswoman told Guardian.

Reeva and Oscar have reportedly been dating for a year. In the social pages of last weekend’s Sunday Independent, she described Pistorius as having “impeccable” taste. “His gifts are always thoughtful,” she was quoted as saying.

Some of her last Twitter posts indicated she was looking forward to celebrating Valentine’s Day on Thursday with him.

“What do you have up your sleeve for your love tomorrow???” she posted yesterday.

Pistorius is well liked by most South African citizens and the sad incident has put a lot of people in shock, with many lending their support to him. He made history as the first double amputee to run in the Olympics and reached the 400 meter semi-finals in London 2012.

So sad… May her soul Rest In Peace.
