Bone Thugs-N-Harmony Rapper Arrested In Calabasas On Warrants From Traffic Violations

CALABASAS (CBSLA.com) — A member of the rap group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony was arrested in Calabasas early Tuesday morning in connection to two traffic violations, including a suspended license.

Sheriff's deputies were sent to Good Nite Inn around 5:25 a.m. to quiet a party when they found rapper "Layzie Bone," whose real name is Steven Howse, at the hotel.

"When they contacted Mr. Howse in the hotel room, they determined he had a couple of warrants," said Lt. Robert Wiard of the Malibu-Lost Hills Sheriff's Station.

Howse was later freed on $80,000 bail, according to Wiard.
