Prosecutors are considering charges against rap singer Snoop Dogg after authorities discovered a 21-inch collapsible baton in his bags as he boarded a San Francisco-bound flight, authorities said Tuesday.
The 35-year-old, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, had the baton in his laptop case as he went through a security checkpoint at John Wayne Airport on Sept. 27, sheriff’s spokesman Jim Amormino said.
District attorney’s spokeswoman Farrah Emami said her office received the sheriff’s report Monday.
