A video shows rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine attacked and being beaten by a group of men inside an LA Fitness center in South Florida.
According to his attorney, Lance Lazzaro, 6ix9ine was attacked by several men while inside the sauna and his security was not with him at the time of the attack.
He added that the 26 years old rapper, tried to fight off his attackers but they were just too many.
The video shows 6ix9ine on the bathroom floor of the gym as two men kicked and roughed him up. He left with a bloodied face and was hospitalized due to the injuries.
He suffered gashes and swelling, along with injuries to his jaw, ribs, and back and was taken to the hospital via an ambulance.
6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez has been reportedly labeled as a snitch and was criticized by Snoop Dogg, after he let out on some of his fellow gang members in order to be granted an early release from prison.
It’s unclear whether the men that attacked him were members of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods, or whether the attack had anything to do with his testimony against the gang members.
Detectives from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office are still investigating the attack.
6ix9ine was recentlykicked out of LoanDepot Parkin Miami during the World Baseball Classic days ago after he was accused of standing up and blocking the view of other fans as he waved a Mexican flag during Mexico vs. Puerto Rico game Friday night. He was also said to be intoxicated then.
