TEXAS -- Country music legend Willie Nelson has been arrested for marijuana possession.  A U-S Border Patrol spokesman says Nelson was apprehended Friday at a checkpoint in western Texas.

A Border Patrol officer smelled marijuana on Nelson's tour bus, and a search turned up six ounces of pot.  Nelson and two other people were arrested.  Authorities say Nelson was released after posting a bond of 25-hundred dollars.  His spokeswoman is not commenting.
