Last night, Kodak Black failed to show up for a scheduled concert in Boston, prompting fans to wonder about the rapper's whereabouts. Despite early speculation that Kodak had "gone missing," as several of his own team were equally confused, TMZ has issued some clarification on the situation. As it turns out, Kodak was reportedly taken into police custody while attempting to cross the United States border. He and three others were arrested on both drug and weapons charges after U.S. Customs Agents inspected the vehicle, a Cadillac Escalade.

Apparently, Kodak was hit with a criminal charge for weapon possession, and a misdemeanor charge for marijuana possession. A Porsche that was traveling with Kodak's entourage was also stopped, and the driver was revealed to be carrying several loaded handguns. On that note, some of TMZ's sources allege that Kodak was carrying two guns, and while he surprisingly made it into Canada without a hitch, his return into the States are far more problematic.
As of now, Kodak remains in custody, being held on either a $20,000 cash bond or a $40,000 bond. The arrest is likely to bode ill for young Kodak, who continues to find himself in increasingly hot water, legally speaking. Perhaps a small collective of unruly fans is truly the least of his worries. Nor is T.I., with whom he continues to engage in a war of words. Is Kodak simply doomed to be the orchestrator of his own demise?
