According to video footage of the incident, published by TMZ, the “Tunnel Vision” artist was seen leaving The Nice Guy with fellow rapper Gunna (real name: Sergio Giavanni Kitchens). The two stopped to take a few photos with fans as a physical fight ensued among another group of people, in which Black was spotted running straight toward the scuffle. Gunshots were heard in the published video after an unidentified person opened fire and everyone in the street ran away. 

Black seems to be OK despite his injuries, as he posted a tweet on Sunday, February 13. “Drake Say Box Seats Wit ‘Em [sic] @ Da Super Bowl Like Da Bengals BTW,” the “Super Gremlin” rapper wrote via Twitter. 

Reps for Black did not immediately respond to In Touch’s request for comment.
