MARTINEZ — Two days after his arrest in Pittsburg, Bay Area rapper A-Wax was charged with three felonies, and is now in county jail on no-bail status, according to public records.
A-Wax, whose real name is Aaron Scott Doppie, was charged Thursday afternoon with being a felon in possession of a firearm, illegal possession of ammunition, and having a large-capacity magazine. The offense dates listed on all three charges are March 10, the same day Doppie and two others were arrested in an early morning police raid in Pittsburg.
Police have not commented on the investigation, other than to say it was active and details won’t be released until a later date. It isn’t clear whether the gun charges were the original intent of the investigation, or simply the result of a gun recovered during the raid.
Jail records say Doppie — who was being held on $1.1 million bail yesterday — is now not eligible for bail. He remains at the Martinez Detention Facility, according to the records.
