J. Kim Murphy Bill Kahan Kapri, better known by his stage name Kodak Black, was arrested Friday after a traffic stop in Florida.The rapper was pulled over when Florida Highway Patrol flagged his car as having tinted windows “which appeared to be darker than the legal limit,” according to a release obtained by CNN.Upon stopping Kapri, authorities discovered that the vehicle’s registration had expired.
A small bag of 31 white tablets of oxycodone, an opioid drug, and $75,000 in cash were uncovered upon a further search. Kapri was subsequently arrested, with online police records indicating that the rapper was taken into custody Friday for “possession of a controlled substance without prescription.” Florida Highway Patrol and Kapri’s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, were not immediately available for comment.A Florida native, Kapri was sentenced to three years in prison in November 2019 after pleading guilty to knowingly making false statements in order to unlawfully acquire firearms from a Miami-area gun shop.
