He was stopped for an ID check by the Missouri Gaming Commission and subsequently arrested on a previous warrant he had for failing to maintain auto insurance.
He was also accused of having four ecstasy pills, according to police records. Nelly was taken to and then released from the Maryland Heights Police Department custody.
