NEW YORK (Reuters) - Rapper DMX was arrested after a three-car crash involving a police cruiser on a major New York City expressway, police said on Saturday.

Police said a car driven by DMX, whose real name is Earl Simmons, hit another car, which then slammed into the cruiser late Friday on the Major Deegan Expressway in the Bronx. Two police officers were treated for minor injuries.

The 34-year-old hip-hop star was charged with driving with a suspended license and released, police said.

The driver of the first car hit was treated for minor injuries, according to local papers.

Last year, DMX was jailed for weapon and drug possession, and criminal impersonation after trying to steal a car then crashing into another vehicle through a parking lot gate at New York's Kennedy Airport.

A criminal AND a moron. Once he officially becomes a felon, he's a democrat for sure.

So much for turning his life over to Christ and becoming a pastor.

Somehow I don't think he is singing his ditty "It's All Good" right about now.
