Lil Wayne's Miami Beach home raided by police
Lil Wayne received a surprise guest at his Miami Beach home on Tuesday: the police.
Though the rapper was not home at the time, ET has confirmed that his mansion was raided by Miami Beach police officers after obtaining a warrant. According to additional reports, the warrant was allegedly issued in order to seize property since Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., owes $2 million to Signature Group after a September court ruling.
According to TMZ, Wayne was sued by Signature Group, a company that leases private jets, for neglecting to pay utilities. Ruling in favor of Signature, the court ordered Weezy to cough up $1.8 million, plus $200,000 in attorney's fees.
The raid comes one day after Wayne announced the upcoming Thanksgiving release of his new mixtape, "No Ceilings 2."
Weezy has been having a rough year so far. Amid a very public battle with his record label, an alleged murder conspiracy involving Birdman and Young Thug, Wayne also split from girlfriend Christina Milian in August after about a year of dating. Milian opened up about the breakup in an interview with ETonline in September. See what she said in the video here.
