An Orlando rapper and one of his security guards were arrested after they were stopped for driving in a bus lane and police found multiple firearms.
Orlando Police Department officers with the Parramore Bike Unit were on bicycle patrol on Saturday, August 19, when they conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle that was traveling southbound on Magnolia Avenue at Washington Street in the “BUS ONLY” lane.
Upon making contact with the vehicle, officers noticed that the two front occupants were dressed in all-black clothing with full faces masks and black latex gloves.
Police say the occupants were slow to roll down their windows and, once they did, several firearms were seen throughout the vehicle, including a short-barreled rifle that was near the front passenger’s feet.
The two men in the front of the vehicle identified themselves as security personnel for the rear passenger, rapper 22-year-old Anthony T. Williams. According to police, Williams, who performs under the stage name “Kuttem Reese,” was on his way to perform at a local nightclub.
Williams and one of the men in the front of the vehicle, identified as 34-year-old Thomas J. Bagley, Jr., were arrested on multiple charges.
