On August 7, 2024, rapper Nelly was arrested in St. Louis County, Missouri. The arrest occurred early in the morning at the Hollywood Casino after Nelly attempted to collect winnings from several jackpots. During this process, a police officer ran a warrant check and found an outstanding warrant from 2018 for failing to appear in court over a traffic citation related to a lack of insurance.
When Nelly was taken into custody, police reportedly found four ecstasy pills in his possession, though Nelly's lawyer disputes the drug possession charge, claiming there was no probable cause for the search. Nelly was released shortly after the arrest, and his lawyer expressed confidence that the case would be dismissed, also requesting an inquiry into the officer's conduct during the arrest.
