Lil Baby released on bond
Jones was booked into the Clark County Detention Center and released after posting a $5,000 cash bond, Clark County court records show. His next court date is scheduled for Oct. 1.
If Lil Baby’s concealed carry permit is from Georgia, which is where he is from, then it would not be valid in Nevada. The state of Nevada recognizes concealed weapons permits from 28 states and Georgia is not one of them.
