According to TMZ, a woman who was beaten at a performance by American rapper 50 Cent filed a complaint against the artist on Wednesday evening and suspected him of criminal assault.
According to police sources consulted by TMZ, police believe the artist threw the microphone at his equipment in the production area and hit the victim.
Police said the woman claimed he looked directly at her before throwing the microphone, so in her opinion 50 Cent at least knew she was there. The victim ended up in the hospital with a laceration to his head, TMZ confirmed.
The rapper took the stage at Crypto.com Arena on Wednesday night as part of his 2023 “Final Lap” tour … and was handed several non-working microphones during his performance, TMZ noted.
Photos of the victim emerged on Instagram showing a cut on his forehead and bloody towels wrapped around his neck.
So far, 50 Cent has not commented on this.
