(AllHipHop News) Rapper Jim Jones was released from police custody after being arrested in New York City for driving with a suspended license.
TMZ.com reports that Jones was busted today (March 30th) for driving his 2011 Bentley in the bus lane with a suspended license.
According to the rapper, the New York Police Department showed him the utmost respect during the process, leading him to praise the officers.
"I'm just an entertainer trying to make a living," the rapper told the Daily News. "They showed me total respect. Every officer in there is a gentleman."
Jim Jones is a member of The Diplomats, a rap group that features core members Cam'ron and Juelz Santana, who recently reunited after years of inner-turmoil within the group.
Last week, Juelz Santana missed a performance with Chris Brown in New York City, after police stopped the rapper searching for guns and drugs.
Juelz is currently free on $125,000 bond, after a 10-month investigation by the Bergen County Prosecutors Office and Gang Unit resulted in the raid of his New Jersey studio.
Police found two loaded 9MM handguns and a small amount of marijuana.
As for The Diplomats, the group is currently touring for their reunion, while simultaneously promoting upcoming releases by Jim Jones (CAPO) and Cam'ron and Vado (Gunz & Butta)."
Jim Jones' CAPO is due in stores on April 5th, while Cam and Vado's Gunz N' Butta are due in stores on April 20th.
