Federal Agents Seize Major Drugs, Guns From Juice WRLD’s Flight

Once Juice WRLD’s autopsy becomes available the pubic will have more information on the young causes of the 21-year-old rapper’s death. However, we now know several things. 1) Police on the scene confiscated over 70 pounds of marijuana from the plane which brought Juice WRLD (legal name: Jarad Higgins) and his entourage back from California to Chicago. Upon arriving to Midway International Airport Juice WRLD experienced seizures, suffering convulsions and went into cardiac arrest before dying. 2) Federal authorities and the Chicago Police Department were waiting for their plane to arrive at Midway at the Atlantic Aviation hangar (for private flights) after suspecting the incoming flight was carrying drugs. 3) Police in plain clothes approached the entourage as they exited the flight. A drug-sniffing dog made a “positive alert” for bags on two luggage carts, police claim. Proceeding searches found the above-mentioned marijuana and six bottles of prescription codeine cough syrup. Juice WRLD’s bodyguards, Henry Dean & Christopher Long, were found to have guns on them. At this point Juice WRLD began to experience seizures. Police report Long was charged with unlawful possession of a firearm while Dean was charged with carrying a concealed firearm at an airport and possessing a high-capacity magazine and metal-piercing bullets. Carrying a weapon at an airport is illegal in Illinois even though Dean is a lawful gun permit holder.

We’ll have more on this matter as the details become available. In the past Juice WRLD stated he started using lien because Atlanta artist Future influenced him to do so (catch that video below).
