*UPDATED* BREAKING: Waka Flocka's Home Raided, Gucci Mane Arrested!

Waka Flocka Flame's house was raided this morning by police. We've got the deets on the raid when you read on...

UPDATE: Gucci's manager/Waka's mom just spoke with Global Grind about what really went down....

A group of polic raided Waka Flocka's home in Henry County Georgia today. Waka's mom/manager says that the police were looking for evidence of drugs, gang involvement, and possible prostitution. Police found marijuana and guns in the rapper's home.

Gucci Mane was taken away in cuffs from the home. Neighbors say that four cops cars are still outside the rapper's home. Waka's mom says that if her son doesn't return home soon the police will issue an arrest warrant.

Damn homie SMH. I'm not even surprised. I wonder if this video of Waka and Wiz smoking weed on camera had anything to do with it?

UPDATE: Waka's mom, Debra Antney, says that police are just trying to find evidence against her, her son, and Gucci. She said,

"I don't sell drugs and I'm not a gang banger. I'm not gonna have them go through that, not none of them boys - because most of them boys are trying to get their lives together. They are trying to find gang-afilliated stuff that they can't find. They're trying to call our company gangs, like we're all gangs - even me. Officers just called me the Candy Lady, they wouldn't let me leave, I was the one who was really locked in there who they had. They called me the Candy Lady they said I'm the one that's running the whole thing or whatever."

Antney also says that this another case of police harassing rappers saying, "we go through this because they're black, for one, so they can't be doing anything. The police aren't finding gang stuff - there is no gang stuff... this is what happens when people want to become celebrities themselves"

Brick Squad also has a concert planned to help kids get toys for Christmas. Antney is also worried that the raid will delay the concert. She said,

"I want yall to know that the stuff that's really bad is that those boys were getting ready tonight to do a big concert to raise toys for needy children. We have a huge event that's about to come up, and we don't need to go through this kind of stuff. They're really trying to help people, but you can't do anything when people keep with these rumors and stuff that they say. One person says something and everybody runs with it, and thats the person that you have to become."

Interesting. I still think that police were probably justified in the raid.
