Police reports indicated that officers responded to a report of a person with a gun, and found the rapper with a handgun. Police arrested him without incident.

Durk was convicted of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon in 2012, and was sentenced to one year in prison. He was released on parole on July 27, 2012, and was expected to complete the parole term July 27 of this year.

Like Durk, Chief Keef ran afoul of the law with firearm violations this year, having been sentenced to two months for violating his probation.
