Rappers Master P (real name: Percy Miller) and his brother Vyshonn (rap name: Silkk the Shocker) were arrested last Thursday in Los Angeles when police discovered two handguns in a car carrying the two hip hop / rap artist.

According to a police spokesperson, the auto, driving adjacent to the UCLA campus, was pulled over because it had no license plates. During the 11:40 PM traffic stop, officers found two loaded guns in the leased Chrysler 300 and arrested the Millers (Vyshonn, 29, was driving, while Percy, 37, was in the front passenger seat).

Cops saw one gun near the driver's seat and the other weapon was stashed beneath the passenger seat. Two other passengers were not charged.

Arrested for felony weapons possession counts (carring a loaded firearm), the rappers were each released on $35,000 bond after spending a few hours in the custody of the L.A. Sheriff's Department.

P Miller’s other brother Corey Miller aka C-Murder is in jail for a August 2001 shooting at a Baton Rouge club.

No court date was released for the Miller brothers at this time.
