Baby was recently arrested on weapons and fraudulent driver license charges in Miami.Word is Miami Police Officer Kevin Millan saw a burgundy Maserati "parked in the right lane of traffic" on MIA's South Pointe Drive this past Sunday (January 29)."The Maserati had no tag, and the [vehicle identification number] was covered," Millan told the Miami Herald. Baby, also known as Birdman, told Millan that he owned the Maserati and that his license and registration were inside the vehicle."After opening the glove compartment, the defendant reached across to driver's side," Millan said. "While doing so, he removed a .40 cal. Glock semi-auto pistol from his waist band with his right hand and dropped it to driver's floor board. . . . Gun loaded w/ 8 rounds.''According to authorities, the Cash Money Records executive (born Bryan Williams) had three ID cards and two driver licenses from Louisiana, one under the name Bryan Williams, with a birth date of February 15, 1975, and the other as Thomas Corey, with a birth date of February 15, 1969.Baby then told police his real name was Brian Christile Williams, born in 1969. He revealed that he recently bought the car in Los Angeles, but "it has no tag and has not been registered." According to the arrest report, he also told officers that he had a prior felony conviction.The Birdman is being charged with carrying a concealed firearm, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, unlawful use of a license by presenting another's driver's license, possession of a fraudulent license and failure to have vehicle registration. He is currently free on an $18,000 bond, however he couldn't be reached for comment.''There are some conflicting stories as to his possession of a handgun,'' Andre Crenshaw, Baby's lawyer, told the Herald. "[Williams] denies saying that he has a felony conviction. He never made that statement.''Baby is slated to appear at a hearing in front of Judge William Thomas on February 21.The incident doesn't mark the first time Baby has had a brush the law in Miami. Back in 2003, King Jewelers sued the rapper in Miami-Dade Civil Court. The Birdman allegedly ordered a $23,500 gold pendant with the initials "BM" in diamonds and nine gold-and-diamond Cash Money pendants worth $54,000, but never picked up the bling or paid for the order. According to reports, Baby settled with King Jewelers, forking up $57,000 for the jewelry.
