Rapper Tory Lanez, serving a 10-year prison sentence for shooting Megan Thee Stallion, was stabbed in the prison yard at California Correctional Institution (CCI) in Tehachapi on Monday morning around 7:20 a.m. Officials from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation stated that Lanez, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, was quickly given medical attention by staff and transported to a local hospital for treatment. The specifics of his injuries and current condition remain unclear as an investigation by CCI and the Kern County District Attorney’s Office is underway.
Lanez’s conviction stems from a July 2020 incident where he shot Megan Thee Stallion in the foot after a party at Kylie Jenner’s home. Despite pleading not guilty, he was found guilty in December 2022 of three felony counts: assault with a semi-automatic firearm, carrying a loaded, unregistered firearm in a vehicle, and discharging a firearm with gross negligence. Throughout the proceedings, prosecutors described how Lanez had allegedly intimidated and harassed Megan for two and a half years following the shooting. This high-profile case has garnered significant media attention, both for the nature of the crime and the figures involved. The recent stabbing incident adds another layer to an already tumultuous series of events surrounding Lanez’s legal troubles and personal life. Further updates on his condition and the circumstances of the stabbing are anticipated as investigations continue.
