Dr. Dre Put In Handcuffs Following Road Rage Clash Outside House

Straight outta Malibu.

Rapper Dr. Dre was questioned, cuffed and detained in a cruiser by cops outside his Malibu home Monday after a road rage clash with a menacing motorist, sources told the Daily News.

The producer-turned-headphones mogul was patted down by sheriff’s deputies after the unidentified male motorist called cops and said Dre pointed a gun at him.

The incident started when the motorist pulled off California’s Pacific Coast Highway and stopped in front of Dre’s beachside mansion, blocking his driveway.

“He said, ‘Oh, would you mind moving, it’s my driveway.’ And the guy was pretty crazy from the get-go,” a source close to Dre told the Daily News.

“I’m trying to get out of the f------ traffic,” the man allegedly yelled at Dre.

“Uh, this is my driveway, I don’t know what you’re yelling at me for,” Dre allegedly responded as the motorist continued to shout obscenities, according to the source.

The man moved his vehicle but remained in the immediate area and was “cursing” at Dre until the gangsta rap pioneer reached into his pocket to take out his cell phone to record the bizarre encounter, the source said.

“Oh great, another black guy with a gun,” said the man, who appeared to be white with a handlebar moustache, the source told The News.

“What are you talking about? I’m getting my phone,” Dre allegedly said, according to the source.

Cops said Monday that they responded to Dre’s address at 11:15 a.m. after a motorist claimed a male at the residence “ordered him to leave and produced a handgun.”

The Los Angeles County Sheriff named Dre as the resident in a press release and said that “due to the nature of the call,” he was “searched, handcuffed and briefly detained in a patrol car while deputies investigated the incident.”

They said Dre, whose real name is Andre Young, “was cooperative with investigating deputies, consented to a search of his person and denied the allegations regarding the handgun.”

Dre told investigators that when the motorist first moved to let him into his driveway, he parked in the center median in front of his residence, cops said.

It was while the man was at the center median that Dre pulled out his cell phone to begin filming, he told cops.

The deputies found no weapon at the scene and Dre was not arrested, according to the sheriff's department statement.

But because the motorist initiated a private person’s arrest, Dre received a citation in the field for misdemeanor brandishing a firearm.

A sheriff's spokeswoman said she couldn't name the man Monday because he was protected as the alleged victim.

The source close to Dre said Monday that the millionaire businessman had no immediate plans to seek legal recourse or make anything more out of the incident.

“The good news is no one really believed it and everyone can move on with their lives. And he’s lucky for that,” the source said.
