Yesterday (May 6) there was a shooting near Drake's home in Toronto, but luckily the rapper himself was unharmed in the crazy incident as he hasn't been in Toronto in quite some time.
According TMZ, An unidentified man was shot outside Drake's mansion near the intersection of Bayview Boulevard and Lawrence Ave around 2:09 am. local time Tuesday (May 7). While authorities have yet to release any information on who the person is or if they were related to the Canadian superstar himself, the injured man is said to be in a very serious condition as he was taken to a hospital after the shooting.
Per TMZ:
Officers say the suspect in question fled in a vehicle … although, there is no official description available at this time. Police have cordoned off the area and there are boots on the ground.
The shooting appears to be specifically linked to Drake, as there is video of officers at his actual property that has begun circulating through local media. Many are already jumping to the conclusion that it may all be related to the very public beef he's in. Remember… Drake has been caught up in a nasty feud with Kendrick Lamar these past few weeks.
While most of the bad blood was left in the music, there were nasty allegations from both sides — Drake claimed that Kendrick is a woman beater and that one of his children isn't actually his. As for Kendrick…he has accused Drake too.
Could he have been a crazy conspiracy theorist who believed Drake was involved in some wild pedophile ring and wanted to take matters into his own hands a la “Pizzagate”? Kendrick using Drake's mansion dotted with sex offender pins could have motivated someone to take some incredible action. But we'll have to wait for authorities to explain the situation before we really know the motivation behind the shooting.
