Nelson was arrested after six ounces of the drug was found on his tour bus in Texas, according to a US Border Patrol spokesman.

The bus had pulled into a police checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Texas, where an officer smelled cannabis when a door was opened.

A search of the bus found the drug and Nelson was among three people arrested, Border Patrol spokesman Bill Brooks said.
