Lil’ Wayne is Being Investigated for Assault

A doorman at the Hyde Nightclub in Los Angeles is reportedly suing Lil Wayne for battery. According to a report from TMZ, the doorman says Wayne punched him while at a club after the BET Awards. The report claims several members of Wayne’s crew were turned away at the door to the club, where he and 2 Chainz were hosting a BET Awards after party.

The report claims Wayne then punched the doorman in the face, causing him to be hospitalized; he was released later that night. If true, Lil Wayne could face misdemeanor battery charges for the incident.

It’s been a rough few weeks for Lil Wayne. His plane was forced to make an emergency landing in Nebraska on June 13 after he suffered from a series of seizures. These are the first seizures Wayne has had since 2013, when a string of them led to grounded flights and canceled tour dates.
