Rap star released on bail

US rapper Snoop Dogg has been released from police custody following a fracas at London's Heathrow Airport. The delay meant he had to cancel a gig in Johannesburg last night as part of South Africa's Freedom Day celebrations. Snoop Dogg was granted bail and will appear again in court next month. The BBC reports that the star and five others were arrested for alleged violent disorder and held in custody overnight. Seven police officers were left with minor injuries after the incident. It is not clear at the moment whether Snoop Dogg’s concerts in Durban and Cape Town will go ahead as planned. The group has been banned from flying British Airways for the foreseeable future.
