Bump J Busted On Bank Robbery Charges

Chicago rapper Terrance "Bump J" Boykins has been arrested and charged with a 2007 bank robbery. According to Chicago's WBBM, federal authorities attained the emcee earlier this week after he was stopped by local police during a routine traffic stop. He has been the target of a nationwide search by Chicago FBI's Violent Crimes Task Force since September 2008. J was indicted before a federal grand jury on one count of bank robbery and violation of federal firearms statues. A witness believes there were two men, including J, involved in the January 4 robbery of a Chase Bank where they were equipped with handguns and forced bank employees to hand over more than $100,000. J is currently being held without bond at the Carbondale Police Department until he returns to Chicago where he will be officially charged and placed behind bars. If convicted, J faces up to 20 years in federal prison. The other suspect in the case has yet to be charged. Bumpy J who was at one time signed to Atlantic Records, has recorded songs with fellow Chi-town rapper Kanye West and Rhymefest and has dropped several mixtapes including 2006's DJ Drama hosted "Chicagorilla" source
