When Too Short was arrested for DUI in Los Angeles yesterday morning police say he tried to dump narcotics in the back seat of a police cruiser.
A preliminary test revealed the drugs to be meth. Authorities believe further tests will prove that the narcotics are ecstacy laced with meth.
Short's rep, David Weintraub, tells TMZ that the 46-year old rapper is being falsely accused.
"Short was diligently searched and cuffed prior to being placed in the disgustingly filthy patrol car," Weintraub said. "It was 3 AM, the cop car smelled like vomit and was littered with remnants from prior arrests of the evening."
As for why Short Dawg took off running on foot during a field sobriety test and fell in the street, Weintraub hinted there may have been some wrongdoing on the part of the LAPD that led to that.
"In the past, Short, like many others, has been mistreated by law enforcement and these unfortunate prior incidents led to the complications after the stop."
Weintraub also wanted to make it clear that Short doesn't indulge in any other drug besides marijuana.
"Any assertion that Short was carrying powder is ridiculous! Every rap fan knows Short's into weed," Weintraub said.
