Lil Zay Osama was arrested and is behind bars for weapon charges. Claims have it that he accidentally left a machine gun which has been identified as a Glock in a stranger’s car after an Uber ride.
Professionals claim that the gun could “automatically fire more than one round with a single function of the trigger and, therefore, was a machine gun.”
According to information from Complex, legal documents indicate that the 25-year-old rapper seemingly forgot the machine gun in the Uber car. Prosecutors claim Osama and his associates took the ride Thursday in New York City, from a Manhattan hotel to a Queens recording studio.
The driver allegedly saw Osama holding a firearm throughout the trip and noticed the weapon was still in the car after the passengers got out. Later it was identified as a loaded Glock 22.40 caliber pistol with a “switch” device, the gun was reported to authorities right away.
The weapon was tested in the field by the NYPD and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives Joint Firearms Task Force.
Additionally, he previously admitted to owning the weapon in his song, “Danny Block”. He rapped, “Ayy, I just got a brand new Glock/ With a fifty and a switch.”
The rapper has been denied bail by a Brooklyn federal court judge.
