Famed rapper Todd Anthony Shaw, otherwise known as Too Short (or Too $hort if you prefer), has been arrested on suspicion of DUI and drug possession, according to reports.

According to TMZ, law officials claim Shaw attempted to run from the police:

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, Short — real name Todd Anthony Shaw — was pulled over in L.A. a couple hours ago for some traffic violation … and when cops approached the vehicle, he appeared under the influence.

Now here’s where it gets weird — when police attempted to administer a breathalyzer test, law enforcement sources tell us Too Short took off … and tripped as he ran down the street.

Needless to say, he didn’t get away, and they booked him on DUI and felony narcotics possession, after he allegedly tried to get rid of the druges in the back of the police car.

Too Short’s isn’t the only DUI in the news, as Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham was also arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.
