Willie Nelson and four others were issued misdemeanor citations for possession of narcotic mushrooms and marijuana after a traffic stop Monday morning on a Louisiana highway, state police said.
The citations were issued after a commercial vehicle inspection of the country music star’s tour bus, state police said in a news release.
“When the door was opened and the trooper began to speak to the driver, he smelled the strong odor of marijuana,” the news release said. A search of the bus produced 1½ pounds of marijuana and 0.2 pounds of narcotic mushrooms, according to state police.
A call to Nelson’s publicist wasn’t immediately returned.

Also cited were Tony Sizemore, 59, of St. Cloud, Fla.; Bobbie Nelson, 75, of Briarcliff, Texas; Gates Moore, 54, of Austin, Texas; and David Anderson, 50, of Dallas.

Each was released after being issued a citation.

Nelson, 73, has recorded songs including “On the Road Again” and “City of New Orleans.”

WACO, Texas (Reuter) -- Country singer Willie Nelson was arrested in central Texas on a marijuana possession charge Tuesday after he was found napping in a car, police said.
http://www.crrh.org/hempnews/images/space.gif Nelson was found asleep in the back seat of a car parked along a service road off Interstate 35 in Hewitt, a suburb of Waco, police said. When police tapped on the window and asked for identification, he produced a driver's license, said Sergeant Mike Cooper of the Hewitt police department.
http://www.crrh.org/hempnews/images/space.gif What appeared to be a hand-rolled marijuana cigarette was in the car's ashtray and Nelson was put under arrest for possession of the drug, police said. At that time, Nelson told police there was more marijuana in the front of the car, said Lieutenant Wilbert Wachtendorf, Hewitt police spokesman.
http://www.crrh.org/hempnews/images/space.gif Police found a clear plastic bag containing what is beleived to be marijuana, police said. Nelson was taken to the McLennan County jail in Waco and charged with possession of under two ounces of marijuana.

[gomer_pyle]

[CHUCKBilly]

He had 3 joints

pulling over willie nelsons tour bus, and finding weed and or other minor all natural mind altering herbs and fungus, is about as unusual as pulling over a budwiser delivery truck and finding budweiser beer in the trailer.

note they found at least 2 ½ pounds of weed, not 1 ½ it is just that a with the absence of any accurate weighing scales, a pound was never accuratly accounted for in the initial inspection :D

how much of a fair cop is that?! you can brag in the station about how you found willie nelson with some weed... bit of an anti climax really
