According to reports, the two were arrested in separate incidents resulting in charges of criminal possession of weapons.
Police say officers pulled over a speeding luxury car around 10:37 Sunday night on the Upper West Side. Ja Rule and two others were inside.
A .40-caliber pistol was recovered from the vehicle after a brief search.
New Orleans rapper Lil Wayne was arrested about an hour later after police say officers saw him and another man smoking marijuana. They also found he was carrying a .40-caliber pistol.
More details to come as they become available.

I read about this on CNN.com earlier. Wow.... Gotta stay gangsta, eh!? This is SOOOOO Negative! I'm gonna REPOST my Fab and T.I. ASSESSMENT one more time... just give hip-hop some POSITIVITY 4 the day!
yea please dont repost that again
WHO ARE you? Seriously, I've NEVER heard of "The Statement".... Why don't you try CONTRIBUTING to the spreading of knowledge to the masses? Yeah, that sounds like a good idea...
lol this guy "i never heard of you" nicca who cares where on a hip-hop website, start browsing for a real life, go get some money, or some pussy at that and stop writing long ass editorials as comments that no one cares about haha
As usual, with so many of you pre-schoolers, you failed to answer the ?... hahahaa
LOL.... FUCK U BOTH! (I just wanted to belong) hehehe
Charismatic dont be a retard fam, it's too early in the morning for that.
OKAY, Jokesta's bein' a hater for the a.m. so if you guys wanna know what I thought about Fab and T.I's albums, as I promised you all on Friday before I left, you'll have to look in the "Saigon comments on Jeezy" article (directly below this NEGATIVE ASS NEWS!).
I wanted to try to HELP HIP-HOP OUT, so I copped TWO albums on Friday of artists I'm not a fan of. I can say that if Fab and T.I. keep it up, maybe I'll purchase their future albums, too!
little nigga shut up
lol they forgot to report they both had some e-pills
Publicity by any means!
~Be Eazy!
I fully agree, but Weezy has a gun permitt
well what can i say except 4 what a coincidence i mean the 2 rappers where recently working together onli 2 get arrested at sepeate times, same night, same city and caught with same weapons
weezy thinks carrying a gun and smoking MJ would cover up what he did on stage the other night or make people 4get LMAO....nice try but it aint gonna work....wonder what his many fans and groupies would have 2 say about this 1
Wait... put me on Eaz... what did he do on stage? I have NO knowledge of that?
And, JOKESTA, WHERE'S the article on B.Hop vs. Winky? Ain't that Hip-Hop (Culture)? Lol, even though they're BOTH past their primes....
uh...no. We hesitate to put up an R Kelly article cause he's more R&B than Hip Hop and you think we'll put up a boxing article?...
anyways..here's what allegedly happened with weezy
http://www.defsounds.com/rumors/view/2116-lil-wayne-gets-naked-during-performance.html
rumours (which are probably ture) about him stripping on satge when he was performing his song 'grown man' on stage in LA
A) @ Wayne's gay ass stripping, ALLEGEDLY, on stage: Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Waiting for the defenses from DIE-HARD Lil Wayne fans....tick tock...
B) @ Jokesta: "...and you think we'll put up a boxing article?..." - Yeah, but we're QUICK to put up an article on some STUPID ISH Miss Jones said in the morning, that don't even be news. Ha, the irony. Like, it ain't 3,000 other radio stations and hosts...
Miss Jones is actually a hip hop figurer...she has been for a while. Anyways...going off topic here..back to Weezy smoking weed in the corner.
They're gonna try and say he mad gangster and dumb shit like that.
^^^^ What happend?

Tryin to look hard, please...dem niggas is gay straight up and down. Like 50 said...Ja is a bitch and Wayne is a Whore... you both faggot.
The Statement....please.....you a bitch....and i state that.
LMAO get off my penis, i guess u and char-bear are bff or the same person
lil wayne is the best but i dont know about ja rule and him any monkey can shot a gun
They just trying to build up there street cred. you aint hip hop inless you get caught with the occasional gun and weed; Thus proving you a real thug out nigga. you got to laugh at these clowns. in the words of TI and 50cent, The only thing missing from hip hop is a IQ test-(50cent) These aint mine, get these bullets out my hand(TI)
Is it buiilding street cred are is it protecting yourself shen I read the article it said they both were breaking the law I don't think it said they was waving the gun around it said after a search of vehicles so look past the rap shit and think for a second I pertty sure these dudes wasn't looking for the police it just wron place wrong time
the trouble lil wayne gets in to is funny as hell to me ... but no matter what his fans will back him up( i don't know why), but i bet if it was another rapper they would go against that rapper..
JOKESTA POST THE VIDEO UP OF THEM....JA SHIT LOOK LIKE A PUB STUNT CAUSE HE AIN"T COVER HIS FACE OR NUTHIN ITS LIKE HE WANTED @ B SEEN
Err body shut da fuck up & stick 2 readin da story
time for u to get a girl pussy

Fuck Both of them! They got enough money to get outta Jail! But cops hate Hip Hop! So they'll be fined! very high! they'll pay it off and decrease there chances of fucking wit 50's money! & 50's not worried about neither! So everybody get a fucking grip!
