A video from May 2024 depicting rapper Ice-T having a confrontation with a New Jersey police officer over a vehicle registration issue has resurfaced and spread across the internet like wildfire.
According to NJ.com, Ice-T, whose real name is Tracy Morrow, was pulled over by the officer for what the Unspoken Crime Murders YouTube channel described as a missing front plate on his Porsche.
Morrow, who ironically, in addition to his rap carer, is also known for playing a police detective in the long-running TV series “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,” initially attempted to inform the officer that he was on the way to the DMV to renew his registration, which expired in 2021, and his driver’s license, due to a system issue the DMV experienced the day before.
