DMXRapper DMX was arrested and cautioned at London's Heathrow airport on Saturday after an alleged air-rage incident on his flight to the United Kingdon. The hip hop star - born Earl Simmons - reportedly threw a tantrum when cabin crew urged him to fasten his seatbelt when the plane was about to land.

The 35-year-old rapper refused to button the belt, and the captain called police as he continued to yell at staff. He was arrested shortly after landing.

A Scotland Yard official released the following statement, "Heathrow Police were called at 12:05 p.m. on Saturday to reports of a passenger causing a disturbance on an inbound aircraft. The plane landed at approximately 12:15 p.m. and a 35-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of being verbally abusive to cabin crew."

DMX is no stranger to the police - in 2004 he was arrested at New York's JFK Airport after a road-rage incident over a parking space. The rap star then violated probation terms, when he was cited for speeding in upstate New York. He also hit a car, which in turn struck a police vehicle in the Bronx, New York City.
