Popular girls group Fifth Harmony's singer Lauren Jauregui was charged with possession of marijuana after a staffer at the Washington Dulles International Airport stopped her and found what appeared to be a bag of the drug in her carry-on luggage.
Jauregui's attorney Dina LaPolt later clarified that the 20-year-old singer was not arrested but only given a citation, reported E! Online.
"Lauren Jauregui was not arrested and detained as reported, but simply given a citation for possession of marijuana and released on her own recognizance," LaPolt said.
"She will address the matter appropriately through the legal system. This will not interfere with any future scheduled performances or activities," she added.
As the news spread across the internet, the hashtag #FreeLauren began trending on Twitter.
Bandmates Ally Brooke, Camila Cabello, Dinah Jane and Normani Kordei have not yet commented over the incident.
