Gun admitted as evidence in Lil Wayne trial

A New York judge has ruled that a gun found on Lil Wayne's tour bus can be used as evidence in his gun possession trial, set for 20 April.

A New York judge has ruled that a gun found on board Lil Wayne's tour bus may be admitted in the rapper's trial on charges of gun possession.

The hip hopper was, as previously reported, arrested back in 2007 when an officer claiming to be able to smell marijuana boarded the vehicle and discovered Wayne, aka Dwayne Carter, in the act of trying to conceal a handgun.

Carter has pleaded not guilty to the charges, and his attorney claims that the officer in question fabricated the marijuana allegations just so she could enter the bus. A trial is set to commence on 20 Apr.
