Rick Ross has been released after getting busted this weekend for pot possession. 

TMZ.com reports that cops in Louisiana took the rapper into custody Friday night for possession of marijuana. Authorities became suspicious when they smelled the stench of pot coming from his hotel room.

Cops found a gram of marijuana laying out in plain view while searching Rick's room at the Shreveport Hilton. He was promptly arrested, but has since been released on a misdemeanor summons.

Ricky Rozay may need to give up his Teflon Don nickname after this arrest. However, he wasn't the only celebrity locked up in Shreveport this weekend.

Police stopped Jason Peters of the Philadelphia Eagles for a loud music violation. Authorities took him into custody after he refused to turn down the noise in his vehicle and resisted arrest. Reportedly, cops asked Jason for his identification several times and he wouldn't comply with their request.
