Pete Davidson was pulled over by cops in Upstate New York. However, although he was the one behind the wheels it was his friend who got arrested under allegations of unlawful possession of weed. It is not yet clear why cops had pulled him over.

According to TMZ, which was the first to report on the incident, the smell of weed had probably prompted the pulling over. Pete and his friend were reportedly out on a drive around 4 a.m. last weekend in Syracuse where Pete was apparently filming for his upcoming movie 'Big Time Adolescence'. Included in the 2014 Black List, the movie is set to tell the coming-of-age story of a teenage boy who falls under the influence of an alluring college dropout, played by Pete Davidson. Although Pete had passed the sobriety test that night, his friend was, however, charged for possession of controlled substance and was taken in for unlawful possession of weed. The cops have not yet revealed what the controlled substances are.

The actor and comedian had recently made headlines for his non-"googly" proposal. In his recent interview with GQ, Pete revealed that the 24-year-old SNL star had decided to marry the 25-year-old pop star the first day they met. "The day I met her, I was like, 'Hey, I'll marry you tomorrow. She was calling my bluff. I sent her a picture [of engagement rings]. I was like, 'Do you like any of these?' She was like, 'Those are my favorite ones,' and I was like, 'Sick.' " Although Pete never went on one knee, it was enough to sweep the singer off her feet. 

On Friday's episode of the 'Zach Sang Show', Grande revealed that the proposal was low-key yet sweet. She said, "It was just really simple and really sweet. We were just like hanging out and he had a ring and he just asked me. It was really sweet. He didn't get on the knee or anything, thank God...oh my God, that would've been so googly." Stating that she has never been a very traditional person herself, Grande was taken aback when he proposed to her. "I'm not like a very traditional person, so the fact that I'm even getting married is something I never even saw coming...I never saw that coming, like, I never wanted that, like, I was, 'F--k that, there's no point.' I was like, 'What's the point?' And then I kinda understood it when it was like, with the right person."
