Rapper Wiz Khalifa says he was arrested by police at the Los Angeles International Airport.

Khalifa was arrested on Saturday, reports cnn.com.

The rapper used social media platforms Instagram and Twitter to share the news.

"Three cops yell stop resisting. Only thing to do is let them know. I'm not resisting, I'm doing what I want," Khalifa captioned a video clip uploaded on Instagram, in which he can be heard saying "I'm not resisting, sir," as he is held on the ground by police.

On Twitter, the "See you again" hitmaker commented: "Haven't been slammed and cuffed in a while. That was fun," and claimed that the situation with the police was over him riding a hoverboard.

Khalifa's representative has not yet responded on the arrest.
