DMX nabbed in Arizona again, this time for speeding

DMX, released from an Arizona prison last month, was arrested again after the car he was driving was clocked at 102 miles per hour on a major freeway, state police said on Thursday.

State troopers pulled over the rapper, whose real name is Earl Simmons, on Wednesday after the Chrysler 300 he was driving was caught on radar exceeding the freeway’s 65 mph speed limit, said Bart Graves, an Arizona Department of Public Safety spokesman.

A check showed Simmons’ license was revoked. He was cited and released early on Thursday on suspicion of criminal speeding, driving on a suspended and revoked license and reckless driving.

The vehicle was turned over to the passenger, who was the registered owner, Graves said.

The incident is the latest in a series of run-ins with the law in Arizona for Simmons, 40, who has been arrested at least six times in the last three years on a variety of charges.
