Rapper GloRilla arrested after drugs found in her metro Atlanta home during burglary
Rapper GloRilla, whose real name is Gloria Hallelujah Woods, is facing charges after a burglary occurred at her metro Atlanta home.
The Forsyth County Sheriff's Office confirmed to Channel 2 Action News that deputies were called to a home owned by Woods at 1:30 a.m. on Saturday morning.
Investigators say three suspects went into the home when Woods wasn't there and were stealing things when someone inside the home fired at them. The burglars ran off and investigators don't believe they were injured.

While investigating the burglary, some of the deputies smelled drugs and found a 'significant amount of marijuana' in the master bedroom closet.
Woods was then charged with possession of marijuana and possession of a controlled substance.
She turned herself in to the Forsyth County Jail on Tuesday and was released shortly after on a $22,260 bond.
