Redman was arrested for possession of marijuana at Oslo's airport in Norway. He was arriving from a flight from Amsterdam, where marijuana is legal. Security dogs detected that the rapper was carrying an illegal substance so they honed in on him.
The amount of marijuana that Redman was carrying violated local laws, which tolerate small amounts for personal use.
The promoters of the event and Redman's lawyers spend almost 6 hours dealing with authorities to expedite his release so that he could perform.
Authorities finally released the rapper saying that the realized that he wasn't trying to smuggle drugs into the country and that a cancellation of a show could cause more serious problems.
