Rapper Snoop Dogg was arrested at Heathrow Airport in London after a disturbance in which seven police officers were injured.
According to police, approximately 30 people were involved in the incident which occurred in the business lounge in Terminal 1 of the airport.
Reports claim that members of Snoop Dogg's entourage became disruptive after they were told that they could not board their flight to Johannesburg in South Africa.
A police spokesperson said: "Police were called at 6pm last night to reports of a disturbance involving 30 people in a business lounge at Terminal 1."
"The party was told that they would not be permitted to board their flight and officers then attempted to direct the group to baggage reclaim. A number of the group became abusive and pushed officers."
Six men, including Snoop Dogg, real name Calvin Broadus, were held on suspicion of violent disorder and affray.
A police spokesperson said: "The men, who are all US citizens, are in custody at two west London police stations."
