Late rapper, Juice Wrld who before his death last weekend, was reported to be under the watch of Federal Agent since November, has been alleged to have swallowed multiple Percocet pills during a police search of his private jet to avoid arrest. The move by the rapper, eventually lead to his unfortunate death, TMZ reports.
According to the report by TMZ on Monday 9th December 2019, they reported that Law enforcement sources had said that the pilot flying Juice WRLD’s plane alerted authorities on the ground that the rapper and his team were traveling with guns.
When they landed, FBI and FAA agents were waiting for Juice WRLD and went on to search the plane. This allegedly prompted Juice WRLD to swallow the Percocet pills in hopes to hide them from the police. Those close to the situation claim to have seen Juice take the pills and that they could have contributed to his possible overdose.
The report also added that the rapper and his entourage were boarding their flight bound for Sydney, Australia, when Customs Agents conducted the search.
Drug-sniffing dogs were all over Juice and co. and their luggage. It’s unclear if agents found anything — we do know the plane was eventually allowed to take off with Juice on board
Juice WRLD went into convulsions during the search and then cardiac arrest.
The officers gave Juice Narcan when the convulsions started to counteract the Percocets. This brought him to consciousness but he was still incoherent. Police found 3 guns. All three weapons (two 9mm pistols and a .40 caliber pistol) were registered but they still led to the arrest of Juice WRLD’s two bodyguards. Police also discovered 70 pounds of marijuana in the passengers’ luggage and six bottles of codeine cough syrup. The guards, 36-year-old Christopher Long and 27-year-old Henry Dean, were charged with misdemeanors over the weapons.
From the dispatch audio obtained by TMZ, the responding officers told dispatch workers that they needed an ambulance for the rapper multiple times. They even asked for when the vehicle would arrive on at the scene, but they were unable to get a specific estimate for the time of arrival. At this point, no cause of death has been confirmed. An autopsy was performed on Monday, but additional testing will be needed to solidify his cause of death.
Paramedics reportedly spent close to 40 minutes trying to stabilize WRLD. He was eventually transported to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead at 3:06 a.m
