Chicago Rapper Chief Keef Arrested for DUI in Highland Park

Chief Keef (real name Keith Cozart) was charged earlier this month with driving under the influence of drugs by Highland Park police. According to authorities, on March 5 at approximately 12:40 a.m., Keef was pulled over in the 2600 block of Skokie Valley Road for an expired registration on his Jeep Grand Cherokee. Police allegedly smelled an odor of burnt cannabis during the traffic stop. Keef was charged with DUI after reportedly failing field sobriety tests.

Keef was also charged with driving on a suspended license, operating an uninsured motor vehicle and expired registration. He was released the following day after posting a $300 bond. Keef’s arraignment on the new charge is scheduled for April 11 at the Waukegan Courthouse.

This incident comes after Keef recently completed a 90-day mandatory drug rehabilitation program in California.
