Puffy and entourage pulled over on Sunset Boulevard

P Diddy is used to being stopped for autographs by fans with pens not cops with guns...

Reports claim that a police officer pulled out a gun when he stopped Bad Boy boss P Diddy and his entourage during a weekend traffic stop.

A spokesman for Sean Combs was quick to play down the incident, saying the gun was never pointed at the Hip Hop icon and the officers were "very respectful".

The incident took place on Sunset Boulevard as P Diddy travelled with his seven-car convoy, one of the cars in Puff's entourage was pulled over by the deputy for having an expired registration tag.

The LA sheriff's office says that the officer only raised his gun as he was worried when several men approached his vehicle, the situation was calm soon after and there was no action taken by the police as the car was a rental.
