Famed Public Enemy hype man Flavor Flav was arrested last night in Las Vegas for driving under the influence, possession of marijuana, and more.

According to TMZ, Flav got pulled over by Nevada Highway Patrol shortly after midnight today (May 21) while driving 73mph in a 45mph zone. Along with the DUI, drug possession, and speeding charges they also booked him for having an open container of alcohol in the car, driving with a suspended license, and improper vehicle registration.

The news comes just over  a year after the 56-year old rapper was arrested in New York after being pulled over for driving 79mph in a 55mph zone while on the way to his mother’s funeral. In that case the police arrested Flavor Flav  for carrying more than a dozen suspensions on his license stemming from various unpaid tickets.
