Wiz Khalifa was reportedly arrested in Romania over the weekend after consuming marijuana during a music festival performance.
Khalifa performed at the Beach Please! Festival in Romania on Saturday. Footage of the rapper’s performance shared on social media shows him smoking onstage.
A press release from law enforcement later confirmed that an individual was charged with “illegal possession of high-risk drugs” after attending a music festival with cannabis.
“It was noted that he, during a recital held at a music festival taking place in Costinești resort, Constanta county, possessed over 18 grams of cannabis (a high-risk drug) and consumed (onstage) another amount of cannabis in the form of an artisanal cigarette,” the Directorate for Investigating Organized Crime and Terrorism said in the translated statement.
