Canadian singer and rapper Tory Lanez has reportedly been hospitalized under critical condition following a violent altercation behind bars. Lanez, who is currently serving a 10-year prison sentence for the 2020 shooting of American rapper Megan Thee Stallion, was allegedly stabbed by a fellow inmate at the California Correctional Institution in Tehachapi.
The shocking development was first reported by The Shade Room, a popular entertainment gossip outlet, which claimed that the artist was swiftly transported from the prison facility to a nearby civilian hospital after the attack.
Although details surrounding the circumstances of the stabbing remain unclear, reports suggest that it was a sudden and serious incident within the prison walls.
Further intensifying concerns, TMZ provided an update citing sources who revealed that Tory Lanez’s health status is in a critical state, though no official statement has been released by his legal team or prison authorities at this time.
This marks a disturbing chapter in Lanez’s incarceration, which began after his high-profile trial concluded in August 2023. The case, which attracted significant media attention, ended with the artist being found guilty of shooting Megan Thee Stallion during an argument after a party in the Hollywood Hills.
As fans react to the news with shock and concern, many are waiting anxiously for verified updates about his condition and what this means for his safety while serving his sentence.
Authorities are expected to launch a full investigation into the incident.
