Nate Dogg was arrested early this morning after making "death threats" toward his estranged wife, TMZ is reporting.

The rap crooner allegedly followed behind his wife's car, driving "dangerously" close before she called 911.

Officers arrived and quested both parties. Nate Dogg was then arrested for making terrorist threats and driving with a suspended license. The incident took place at 8:30 this morning and occurred on highway 405 in Los Angeles.

A call placed to Nate Dogg's manager by XXLmag.com was not returned by press time.

The former Death Row affiliate has been in the news lately, making multiple headlines. First, he suffered a stroke late last year and later TMZ released the 911 call on their Web site. Then rumors regarding his death spread on the Internet.---Nick "Dubs" Deluca
