2006 MTV European Awards Flicks

Big Snoop is a wanted vato.
TMZ reported earlier today that a felony warrant has been issued for the arrest of the Doggfather after the Orange County District Attorney charged him with one felony count of possession of a deadly weapon.
Snoop’s lawyers are working with the OC DA’s office to schedule his surrender. On the red carpet at the MTV European Awards he appeared less than effected. I guess he read Trick Baby on his flight over. Heaven knows its a stress reliever in a time of crisis.
