Snoop DoggSnoop Dog was arrested tonight outside NBC in Burbank on weapons and narcotics charges.

The rapper had just performed on Jay Leno's "Tonight Show" and was leaving the studio when Burbank detectives pulled his car over on Bob Hope Drive and placed him under arrest. At the time of this posting, Snoop still has not been brought to the Burbank Police Station. We're told he'll be booked at approximately 9:15 PM.

Snoop was arrested earlier this month by Los Angeles Airport Police after he allegedly tried carrying a gun in a carry-on bag onto a plane. We're told law enforcement was investigating the rapper for allegedly possessing illegal weapons and that investigation could have triggered tonight's arrest.
