DMX Charged With Identity Theft
Here we go again. An Arizona grand jury has indicted DMX on two felony counts of theft and taking someone's identify for allegedly using a false name to get out of paying a $7,500 hospital bill in April. X, whose real name is Earl Simmons, was arrested at Phoenix's Metrocenter mall on Saturday on suspicion of giving a false name and Social Security number in an attempt at dodging a hospital bill.
Tuesday's indictment is just one of many legal troubles Simmons has faced this past year. The 37-year-old rapper is also awaiting trial on charges of animal cruelty and felony drug possession stemming from an August 2007 raid. Read the full story.
