Popular social media star Doggface was recently arrested at his residence in Idaho. The charges against him include possession of pot and drug paraphernalia.

The TikTok star was driving in a red vehicle which was stopped by state troopers. Not only did they find that the vehicle's registration tag is no longer valid, but they also discovered evidence of marijuana inside the truck.

He eventually admitted to possessing weed. Officers also discovered three packets of THC gummies and a marijuana cleaning tool. Although he was sent to jail, he was released the same day on a $600 bond.

In an interview with TMZ, Doggface, also known as Nathan Apodaca, stated that while the cops were initially only going to write him a ticket for possessing pot, when they noticed he had a gun, they accused him of having a felony on his record, adding that he was not allowed to have a gun.

Apodaca further added that despite him categorically denying having a felony record, he was taken into police custody. It was only later that authorities disclosed that they took him in custody on charges of possessing weed.

Born on October 24, 1982, Nathan Apodaca was raised in the USA and joined a potato processing plant, Circle Valley Produce, in 2000. He worked at the place for 13 years and although he later joined the fire department, he went back to his original job following the Covid-19 pandemic.

He became a social media star after sharing a video where he was seen dancing to the single Get Up. The video was posted in 2019 and contributed a lot to the increase in followers for his social media accounts.

Another one of his popular videos features him skateboarding on a highway with a juice bottle, while wearing a black face mask. He also recently appeared on the popular FX series, Reservation Dogs.

He has two daughters – Angelia and Makyla. However, the identity of their mother is a mystery.
