Flo Rida's PA arrested for drug possession

Flo Rida's personal assistant was arrested in Australia and fined for drug possession.

The rapper is currently on tour Down Under, but the trip to a turn for the worse when cops raided the star's hotel suite in Queensland just hours before he was about to go on stage.

Dakari Dalawn Phillips was arrested and charged with possessing dangerous drugs, unlawful possession of restricted drugs and possession of a weapon after cops allegedly found marijuana, a rolled joint, Viagra, a bottle of liquid cannabis and a taser.

The raid came after officers of the Northern Region Drug Squad received a tip-off which suggested the smell of dope was coming from the hotel room.

Phillips spent the night in jail and appeared before the court on Monday, when he was handed a fine of $1,865 and released as he has no previous criminal record, according to Australia's Herald Sun.

The incident came just a day after Flo Rida cancelled an appearance at Australia's Fat As Butter music festival due to 'unforeseen circumstances'.
