Def Jam Records star 2 Chainz was the victim of a robbery yesterday afternoon (June 9) in Northern California. According to TMZ.com,
the Atlanta, Georgia native formerly known as Tity Boi was with an
entourage of 14 people yesterday at approximately 4:30pm in the vicinity
of San Francisco, California.
While information is releasing, sources with the San Francisco Police
Department told TMZ that they responded to the sound of gunfire. While 2
Chainz reportedly gave the assailant(s) his wallet, the Based On A T.R.U. Story
album-maker opted not to provide authorities with additional
information about the robbery and shooting. Reports at present indicate
that nobody was injured.
UPDATE: A member of 2 Chainz's entourage was robbed, but the rapper
himself was not robbed yesterday (June 9) in San Francisco, according to
the San Francisco Police Department, as per Radio.com.
“He was not the victim of a robbery,” San Francisco police said of 2
Chainz in a phone interview with Radio.com. “He was there, but he wasn’t
the victim.”
The police said that one member of 2 Chainz's crew reportedly fell to
the ground after a shot was fired and the group scattered. The member
who fell was then approached by the suspect, “who robbed him of an
unknown item and fled the scene,” according to the police. The police
also said 2 Chainz's crew is "being very uncooperative" in the
investigation and that a suspect has not been located.
