DMX ARRESTED AFTER CAR COLLISION
Earl Simmons, better known as rapper DMX, was arrested and charged on Friday, April 15th for driving with a suspended license after he was involved in a slow-moving collision on the Major Deegan Expressway in the Bronx, police said. What's worse? The car he hit then hit a cop car...
According to authorities, he was at the wheel of a 2005 Dodge Magnum, in heavy traffic at about 8 PM when his car struck the rear of another vehicle. That vehicle was pushed into the rear of a city police squad car.
Simmons was with a woman and two children in the Dodge. No one in that vehicle or in the squad car was injured. Authorities said the driver of the car struck by Simmons was complaining of injuries and taken to a hospital nearby.
In December of 2004, Simmons pleaded guilty to reckless endangerment and driving under the influence of drugs at Kennedy Airport when he drove an S.U.V. with lights and sirens, stopped another vehicle, claimed to be a federal agent, and then sped away.
Back in 2001, he was ordered to serve a 15-day jail sentence for driving without a license.
DMX, has been one of rap's heavyweights since the late '90s and has recently moved into acting, with roles in films Romeo Must Die, Exit Wounds and Cradle 2 the Grave.
