MC Hammer Arrested

Former rapper MC Hammer was arrested over the weekend for obstruction. Hammer says that an officer pulled out a gun and randomly asked him if he was "on parole or probation." But the rapper claims that it was actually a case of racial profiling.

The "U Can't Touch This" rapper says he was arrested for obstructing an officer in the performance of their duties and resisting an officer. He was booked and released from Santa Rita Jail in Dublin, California.

Taking to Twitter, Hammer detailed what he says actually went down. "Chubby elvis looking dude was tapping on my car window, I rolled down the window and he said 'Are you on parole or probation?'" he wrote. "While I was handing him my ID he reached in my car and tried to pull me out the car but forgot he was on a steady donut diet. .. It was comical to me until he pulled out his gun, blew his whistle and yelled for help (MallCop) !!! But make no mistake he's dangerous .. only thing more dangerous than a scared man with a gun, is a scared man with an agenda, a gun and a badge. I was citied for obstruction smh. You have to know me to understand I was laughing when he was grunting and pulling on me .. I had just left the weight room .. I will now answer his question, contrary to his personal beliefs, all people of color are not on parole or probation fat boy !!!"

Santa Rita police are yet to comment on the matter...!
