From the ajc: R&B singer/songwriter Lyfe Jennings was arrested Sunday on gun charges in Smyrna while trying to locate the mother of his children, police said.
Jennings, 30, whose real name is Chester Jennings, kicked in the door of a residence on Springwoods Drive in Smyrna while looking for Joy Pound, according to an arrest warrant. He fired the gun in the street and later tried to run from the Smyrna police when they arrived, police said. He posted a $50,000 bond Monday night. Jennings could not be reached for comment. In addition to the gun charges and trespassing, he has been charged with eluding police and driving under the influence.
Jennings served 10 years in prison from 1992-2002 on a felony arson charge when he was 14.
Jennings music career started after his December 2002 prison release when he won the amateur contest at the Apollo five times.
GotttttttttttttDAYUMMMMMMMMM!!!!! Lyfe phucked his face UP!!! This dude isn't all the way there man. Running up in folks' homes with a gun after kicking the door in. He is a convicted felon! He could get some more time because of this foolish act! I mean, I understand he loves his kids but this wasn't the way to handle things. And I can see why the baby mama was probably hiding from him. The fool shot a gun in the air, then to add further insult to injury, he leads the police on a high-speed chase for ten minutes. Can we say STOOPID! If he walks, he better get on his knees and thank the ALMIGHTY!

He led the police on a high-speed chase (in his red Corvette) for 10 minutes and ran into a guard rail (I think it was a rail), then crashed into a tree. That's the reason for all of the scars.
Sad, sad, sad! Now why in the hell would you even think about doing something that damn stupid after you were in jail for 10 years! AND THEN GOT OUT, GOT A RECORD DEAL AND MADE DECENT RECORD SALES!!! Ugh! I wish him luck though...he'll probably need it.
