Authorities arrested a 25-year-old man accused of being a drug “mule” for Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, as federal agents raided the rapper’s two homes on Monday, according to Rolling Stone. Brendan Paul was taken into custody and charged with cocaine possession and possession of marijuana. Paul was named in a sexual assault lawsuit brought against Combs by music producer Rodney Jones. In the lawsuit, Jones accuses Paul of “acquir[ing] and distribut[ing] Mr. Combs drugs and guns.” Paul was arrested on Monday afternoon at Miami-Opa Locka Airport, where TMZ reported that Combs was seen pacing a few hours later. Paul is currently held at Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on two $2,500 bonds. Jones’ lawsuit also included allegations that actor Cuba Gooding Jr. had groped him, and named Prince Harry as an attendee of Combs’ parties. Combs’ homes in Florida and California were raided on Monday as part of an investigation into alleged sex trafficking. It is not clear that Paul’s arrest was connected to the investigation or the lawsuit.
