Reports have been coming in that rapper Meagan The Stallion was shot multiple times and had to undergo surgery.
The incident happened outside of a Hollywood Hills home early Sunday morning. This incident happened before fellow rapper Tory Lanez was arrested on a gun charge after police officers found the weapon in his car along with the “Savage” rapper and another woman.
The rapper took to Instagram to explain the incident and said she would be focusing on her recovery.
“On Sunday morning, I suffered gunshot wounds, as a result of a crime that was committed against me and done with the intention to physically harm me,” she wrote in the public note in an attempt to set the record straight. “I was never arrested, the police officers drove me to the hospital where I underwent surgery to remove the bullets,” Meagan stated.
