A security guard was shot and an intrusion attempt occurred at Drake’s Toronto mansion, coinciding with a public feud between rappers Drake and Kendrick Lamar.
Seth Rogen recently discussed the escalating feud between rappers Drake and Kendrick Lamar during a show at the Hollywood Bowl. The animosity between the artists was highlighted through Lamar’s latest diss track accusing Drake of inappropriate behavior towards underage women, an allegation which Drake has denied. Lamar’s controversial track artwork depicted Drake’s mansion with sex offender targets, increasing tensions further.
Amidst this heated exchange, a security guard was shot in a drive-by incident outside Drake’s Toronto mansion, closely followed by an attempted break-in. The shooting occurred just one day prior to the attempted intrusion, which took place around 2 pm. Toronto Police Service responded to the event, detaining the intruder under Canada’s Mental Health Act.
The shooting left the security guard seriously injured, with the assailant fleeing the scene. Investigations into both incidents are currently underway with cooperation from Drake’s team, though it is unclear whether Drake was present during the incidents. The relationship between the ongoing feud and these violent occurrences has not been established clearly, and representatives for both Drake and Lamar have yet to comment.
