Wiz Khalifa Arrested After Riding Hoverboard in L.A. Airport

"They love sayin stop resisting," he wrote in the caption of the photo showing him pinned to the ground.

The Taylor Gang boss then told fans that his arrest occurred "because I didn't want to ditch the technology everyone will be using in the next 6 months." The technology he's referring to: a hoverboard.

With the above words he included a video of the altercation that likely led to his arrest. You can hear what Wiz has to say to the group of officers, though it's unclear what immediately led to Wiz's frustration.

"You can't do nothin' anyway. What you gonna do, put me in jail because I didn't listen to what you say?," he asks the group of officers. "You can't do nothin'. We can have all the conversations you want to. We can end up on TMZ, you can become as famous as you want to be," he says before the 13-second clip ends.

One would guess that Wiz wasn't willing to stop riding his hoverboard in the airport -- either that or he wouldn't let guards screen the machine for security purposes. Perhaps Wiz wasn't aware that refusing a lawful order of a police officer is an arrestable offense? The incident doesn't appear to have shaken him up too much; as he thinks it's hilarious all those cops surrounded him because of a hoverboard.

He thinks that cops are will soon be riding hoverboards, too, and perhaps those of his design.

In July, Young Thug was forced to leave an Atlanta mall for riding a hoverboard. He then allegedly uttered some life-threatening words at the mall cop who ushered him out, which led to his house being house being raided by U.S. Marshals and his arrest on charges of "terroristic threats."

These hoverboards seem to be causing rappers a lot of trouble. Thug did, however, post a recent Instagram video of him hovering around in the airport, and didn't suffer the same bad luck as Wiz.
