NEW YORK - Busta Rhymes picked the wrong place to be on his cell phone - behind the wheel, driving past a police station.
Rhymes, whose legal name is Trevor Smith, was talking and cruising about 7 p.m. Thursday when he was spotted and pulled over, police said Friday.
The rapper, who's had other run-ins with the law, was issued a summons for a moving violation.
Rhymes' management office declined to comment Friday.
Last month, the best-selling rap star appeared in court on an assault charge for allegedly attacking a man who spit on his car in August. He is due back in court in that case on Dec. 11.
