The home of rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine was burglarised, holding his mother at gunpoint during the break-in, as seen in security footage.
On Sunday (Nov 16), four men broke into the Florida home looking for cash and car keys, and ended up confronting the rapper’s 60-year-old mom.
6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, told TMZ he wasn’t at home during the incident because he was livestreaming with YouTuber Jack Doherty, who was arrested on drug-related charges over the weekend.
The Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office told the outlet that when they arrived at the home, they spoke with several people inside who confirmed that four armed, masked men entered the house carrying handguns.
Police also said Tekashi’s mum was held outside while the rest of the men ran in, ransacking the place and demanding cash and the car keys.
Authorities brought in a K-9 unit to search Tekashi’s home, but by the time they got there, the suspects were already gone. The sheriff’s department says they possibly “drove off in a vehicle before deputies arrived.”
The home invasion comes after Hernandez’s numerous legal troubles, including a guilty plea in July for drug possession that violated his supervised release from a prior federal racketeering and conspiracy sentence.
