Chief Keef is not having a good week. On Monday, a week after he was arrested for smoking marijuana in a hotel room in Georgia, the 17-year-old rapper was arrested for driving at double the speed limit near Northfield, Ill.

The Chicago Tribune reports Keef (ne Keith Cozart) was caught going 110 mph in a 55 mph zone.

The rapper was reportedly driving a 2011 BMW X6 M, heading north at about 3:45 a.m. on Winnetka Road when a Northfield officer clocked him speeding.

Northfield Deputy Police Chief Claude Casaletto said Keef was driving with three other men in the car. He was cited for speeding and exceeding his passenger limit. The rapper was driving with a permit that allows him to carry only one passenger.

A court hearing was scheduled for June 17.
