According to police, on August 31, he was suspected of violating the Cannabis Control Law, alleging that he had hidden about 2 grams of cannabis in his hotel room in Minato-ku, Tokyo.



Yokohama Customs officials found liquid cannabis in a parcel that arrived from the United States on August 11, replaced the contents, and tracked the delivery address, which Reynolds received. ..



Then, when I checked the room of the hotel where I was staying, I found cannabis in the closet.

Since I have been in Japan since April for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, the police are investigating the details.
