Singer El DeBarge got a lucky break this week after he dodged a drug possession charge.
As previously reported, DeBarge was arrested March 20 after L.A. police searched him and another man and found a bag of rock cocaine nearby.
According to DeBarge’s accomplice, he was buying the drugs from the singer; an accusation he has since recanted. He was subsequently charged with felony possession of narcotics with intent to sell. The D.A. has since dropped the charges, citing lack of evidence.
This arrest marks the third time DeBarge been found with drugs since 2001.
