Drug raid on Rihanna tour bus

By Tribute on March 21, 2013 | 9 Comments


Rihanna‘s “Diamonds” world tour hit a slight speed bump yesterday when border inspectors raided one of her tour buses for drugs. Border police at the Ambassador Bridge apparently caught the odor of marijuana on the buses and pulled over all of the 10 vehicles in the entourage for a closer inspection. Drug-sniffing dogs were brought into every bus, but they smelled marijuana on only one – on a man, presumably part of Rihanna’s tour group. He was dealt a civil penalty but, luckily for him, nothing more. Rihanna was not on board any of the buses at the time. However, Rihanna has been very open about her use of marijuana and it’s probably a good thing, for the tour and her fans, that she wasn’t present when the drugs were found. The tour buses were making their way across the border from Windsor, Ontario to Detroit, Michigan. Rihanna is scheduled to perform in Detroit this evening. She just completed two shows in Toronto, Ontario on March 18th and 19th.  ~Cassie Jasinski

    Cocaine or meth, I understand. But weed? C’mon. #legalize

    I wish she HAD been on board and fought for the right to use this beneficial and relatively harmless drug that should have been legalized decades ago.

    Couldn’t agree more ^^^. Time to put this foolishness to an end.

    As much as I agree that marijuana should be decriminalized! it enrages me that famous/rich people get off with nothing more then a slap on their hand, while everyday folk have their lives ruined over a small joint.

    Rihanna is such a ghetto pig and she should be thrown into jail for having drugs on her bus. Someone else besides Chris Brown needs to give her a beating.

    Ever witnessed a family member lose all their drive to accomplish anything productive in this life for love of weed? When you have, talk to me then about its merits. It’s illegal with good reason.

    Who is dumb enough to believe that weed is harmless? Well the potheads for certain. But I mean out of the intelligent people in this world? Now researchers have shown it’s linked with psychoses, in particular schizophrenia. ahhhh…now it makes sense why so many people don’t see it as harmful. They’re a bit whacked out themselves. Duh. There is no drug you can enjoy without repercussion.
