A small town police department in Louisiana had to jail
In addition to that, Mangham cops searched the bus and found both marijuana and prescription pills — and Feldman ended up being cited with possession of marijuana, speeding, and driving with a suspended license.
Feldman quickly paid a fine and was released to go about his business.
He tweeted about the ordeal (below):

The band had been on their way to play the Live Oaks Bar and Ballroom in nearby Monroe, Louisiana that night before they got stopped — it appears, of course, that the show was called off.
For what it’s worth, the group has another show tonight in Houston — and Feldman, tweeting about his whole ordeal, has indicated it’ll go off as planned.
Let’s just hope everybody is OK and the prescriptions come out so charges will go away!
