DMX released from Westchester County prison

DMX has been released from Westchester County prison after paying $25,000 bail, having been jailed after failing to attend two court dates on driving charges.

Traffic police on standby; DMX has been released from Westchester County prison, following an overnight stay, after raising $25,000 bail. The hip-hop star, as previously reported, was locked up at the end of last week following his failure to show up at two consecutive court dates to answer charges of speeding and reckless driving.

The rapper, real name Earl Simmons, has, of course, been repeatedly in trouble with authorities in recent months, and is due in court again on separate, but not dissimilar charges, on 24 Jul.
