Former Bone Thugs-N-Harmony member Flesh-n-Bone was arrested Thursday on gun possession charges. According to TMZ, the rapper was picked up by police in Santa Clarita, Calif. for both the weapon and marijuana possession.

Born Stanley Howse, the Cleveland native was immediately apprehended and is currently being held without bail in a California jail. "At this time all the facts have not been revealed publicly, however I can assure you 100% that Mr. Howse has not walked backwards," said a rep for Howse in a statement. " We live in a great American country where one is innocent until proven guilty."

This latest charge comes less than a year after Howse was released from prison. In 2000 he was sentenced to 12 years behind bars for an assault with a deadly weapon charge. He served eight years and was released last July.

As a member of the Cleveland based rap group, Howse earned a Grammy in 1997 for the hit 'Crossroads.' The group are rumored to be reconciling and working on a new album.

Howse is due back in court later today.
