Big Snoop Dogg just can’t seem to catch a break. Last weekend the prolific, perennial microphone controller was harassed by Swedish authorities, and this morning, he was stopped yet again.
Snoop Dogg Stopped By Italian Authorities
According to Italian financial police, said they stopped the rapper at the Lamezia Terme airport in Calabria on Saturday with $422,000 in cash, well above the limit that can legally be transported across EU borders undeclared.
Financial police verified a report by the Italian news agency ANSA that half of the cash was impounded under Italian anti-money laundering codes. In such cases, the balance is returned minus any fine set by authorities.
Snoop Dogg played in Calabria Friday night, and he’s on his way to England to perform at the Kendal Calling Festival.
