Posted by Troutman, NC – More details have come to light involving the shooting that took place on DaBaby’s property in Troutman, North Carolina earlier this week.
According to TMZ, the Billboard chart-topping rapper exchanged words with the intruder and shot him in the leg after the person breached a fence surrounding the $2.3 million mansion. DaBaby called 911 and was cooperative with officers once they arrived on the scene.
The Troutman Police Department responded to reports of a shooting on Wednesday night (April 13) and discovered someone with a non-life threatening gunshot wound on the property. The shooting victim was transported to local hospital for treatment.
Troutman town manager Ron Wyatt said DaBaby stays at the home periodically and it’s impossible to stumble on the property by accident. One of DaBaby’s relatives is reportedly listed as the owner of the estate, which is surrounded by a large wall and manned by security guards.
