Tierra Whack has been arrested for bringing a loaded firearm through an airport checkpoint.

The North Philly rapper was taken into custody at the Philadelphia International Airport on Tuesday (Nov. 8), XXL confirmed via a rep for the Philadelphia Police Department and the Philadelphia District Attorney on Wednesday (Nov. 9). The arrest came after the Whack World rhymer attempted to go through a TSA screening area and was flagged. Screeners ultimately discovered a gun containing ammunition in her belongings.

"On Tuesday, November 8, 2022, at 11:56 A.M., at Philadelphia International Airport, Terminal C security [the] checkpoint incident occurred," a spokesperson for the Philadelphia Police Department said in a statement released to XXL.
