On December 13 2022, Demetrius 'Lil Meech" Flenory Jr. was arrested a Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood Airport after an unloaded firearm was found in his luggage. Furthermore, Meech could not provide a license for the firearm. However, the BMF star was cleared in January after new evidence showed that the firearm belonged to Meech's bodyguard. Meech's lawyer successfully argued that Meech had mistakenly picked up the bag of his bodyguard while they were rushing to the airport.
Despite this, the story is back in the news after the footage showing Meech's arrest was posted online. The footage was quickly shared across social media. While a fairly standard TSA arrest video, there are a few elements that really make it stand out. It's these elements that have led people to absolutely roast the footage and Meech's behavior.
Watch Lil Meech's Bizarre Arrest Video
The arrest occurred at the pre-flight baggage check. TSA agents spotted the firearm, a Glock 19, in a bag reportedly belonging to Meech. But things get immediately weird as the 22-year-old Meech claims that he's a minor. "Yes, I'm a minor. Sir, I'm a minor. Sir, I have security guards," Meech is told telling a TSA officer. He then does the one thing you really shouldn't do at an airport and claims he didn't pack his own bag. "They left that [the gun] in my bag. I did not pack my own bag," he tells TSA officers. Just as a quick PSA - don't tell a TSA officer that you didn't pack your own bag. They really don't like it when you say that.
It's an utterly bizarre thing to say. It is especially so when being questioned in regard to an undeclared firearm in your checked luggage. Furthermore, Meech can be heard asking if he can remove his ID from his luggage. Why tell the police you're a minor if you're about to show them ID that absolutely says you are not a minor? It's a very weird video, but hilarious nonetheless. Be sure to follow HotNewHipHop for all the latest news and viral videos.
