IS IT TRUE THAT SNOOP'S WIFE SHANTE IS DEAD?

If this frightening incident report on the California Highway Patrol’s website is correct — which we hope it’s not — Snoop Doggy Dogg “has the dead body of his wife in his basement.”

At 3:19 yesterday afternoon — while Snoop was getting high live on the internet — an anonymous tipper called the CHP to alert them of the alleged heinous situation… but apparently it was so ridiculous that no one at the CHP bothered to forward it to the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department.

TMZ obtained the following statement from Snoop Dogg's management: "Of course, the CHP rumors are absolutely not true, totally ridiculous, and most of all hurtful to Snoop Dogg and his family.

Snoop, Shante and their family are all alive and well – we appreciate the fans concerns for their safety. Anything said or reported on regarding the death of Shante Broadus is totally false."
