The story of this man's life just gets sadder by the passing day:
The FBI arrested DMX (government name, Earl Simmons) in Miami earlier today. As reported on HipHopDX, Judge Michael Kemp issued a bench warrant for DMX and raised his bond to $120,000 after the rapper failed to appear for his second appointed court hearing December 5 [click to read]. Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio also added a $5,000 reward for information leading to the capture and/or arrest of X shortly thereafter.

The Arizona Republic reports the rapper and actor will be held by FBI agents in Florida while sheriff's deputies prepare to extradite him.
He was apparently tipped off, but whatever. Just another chapter in how sour his life has really become.
