According to TMZ, Joseph “JoJo” Simmons was charged with possession of marijuana, reckless endangerment and resisting arrest late last night. He is said to have made the purchase in plain view of the officers who eventually detained him and allegedly rolled a blunt in his car on Manhattan’s Upper West Side.

Upon discovering the police were on to him, Simmons threw his vehicle into reverse attempting to escape, nearly crashing into an officer patrol car.

Simmons is the son of hip hop legend Joseph Simmons AKA “Run” of Run DMC and is a reality television regular on MTVs highly acclaimed Run’s House.
