Legendary comedian, 70, arrested on suspicion of drug possession at LA restaurant

Actor-comedian Paul Rodriguez was spotted dining out at a restaurant in Burbank, California, following an incident where authorities reportedly discovered suspected drugs in a vehicle linked to him.

On Monday, he was apprehended following a search of his vehicle, during which authorities reportedly discovered Xanax, along with an item believed to be fentanyl according to NBC4 Los Angeles police.

In my own words, I’d say: As a lifestyle expert, when the police suggested the substances allegedly found during my recent apprehension were mine, I firmly refuted their claims, asserting they did not belong to me.

After a 70-year-old comedian was apprehended in March on charges of drug possession, he too asserted then that the seized substances were not his property.

Representatives for Rodriguez have been reached out to by The Daily Mail for a comment, however, no response has been received as of now.

Law enforcement officers went to an eatery on one of the islands within the Los Angeles County city, following reports that required them to perform a wellness check on a female individual. This action eventually resulted in the arrest of Rodriguez.
