WHITE PLAINS, N.Y -- Four men have been arrested on drug charges after allegedly carrying vast amounts of cocaine to the East Coast by packing it into fancy cars and a rap singer's luxury tour bus, where drugs and cash were hidden under her bed.

The singer, Gloria Velez, who has appeared in videos with rap heavyweights such as Jay-Z, DMX and Ja Rule, has not been charged. Westchester County District Attorney Jeanine Pirro, who announced the arrests, would not comment Monday on whether Velez was cooperating with prosecutors.

Pirro said 75 officers from various agencies carried out search warrants over the last few days and seized more than 200 pounds of cocaine, $800,000 in cash and cars including a Hummer, a Mercedes-Benz, a Cadillac and a Range Rover.

The cocaine and the cash -- plus guns, money counting machines and a vacuum sealer for the drugs -- were displayed for reporters after a news conference in Pirro's office. Also on view were hydraulic jacks used to uncover the trap under Velez's bed in her recreational vehicle.

A call to Velez's manager was not returned.
