ANDRE 3000 HAWKS DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND GETS PULLED


Andre 3000 of the hip hop duo Outkast has been charged with driving 109 mph on a highway in suburban Atlanta, says the Associated Press.

Henry County Police Capt. Jason Bolton says the entertainer, whose real name is Andre Benjamin, was clocked speeding in a 65 mph zone in his Porsche south of Atlanta about 12:30 a.m. Saturday.

The 33-year-old Benjamin is free on $1,200 property bond pending a court date April 29.

Police say Benjamin told them he was going so fast because he missed an exit and had to turn around.

109 seems fast when you say it out loud but I've seen my mom pull 100+ on the highways in Atlanta when we visit so I know Andre found it hard to do the speed limit in the missle that is known as the Porsche.
