According to a report by TMZ, former WBC heavyweight world champion Deontay Wilder was arrested in Los Angeles following a routine traffic stop.
Law enforcement sources told the media outlet that Wilder was pulled over in Hollywood at around 1:15 AM after LAPD officers claimed his Rolls-Royce's windows were illegally tinted and his license plate was obstructed.
During the stop, cops say they smelled an odor of burnt marijuana coming from his vehicle -- so they searched the car.
TMZ, per their sources, indicates that officers allegedly found weed and a 9mm handgun in the vehicle, and put Wilder into custody.
The 6-foot-7 fighter was cooperative and friendly throughout the whole ordeal.
The 37-year-old was booked on a charge of possession of a concealed weapon. Jail records show he bonded out at 6:34 AM.
Wilder -- with a 43-2-1 fighter with 42 knockouts on his resume -- has been out of action since last October, when he demolished Robert Helenius in one round.
There is heavy talk that Wilder could potentially face former two-time world champion Anthony Joshua at the end of the year in the Middle East. Another longtime option is a WBC final eliminator against former unified champion Andy Ruiz.
