Lil Wayne’s former bodyguard Carlos sues with alleged assault and pulling gun.
The alleged incident happened in 2021. According to a report by TMZ, former bodyguard Carlos Christian claims that Lil Wayne pulled a semiautomatic rifle to him and threatened to shoot him.
The court document further said that Carlos took the threat seriously as Lil Wayne had spent time in prison related to weapons charges. In 2021, TMZ reported about Christian calling the cops in Dec 2021, citing threats from Weezy with the same storyline in the court documents.
Christian told police that Lil Wayne physically assaulted him, flashing an AR-15. However, people close to Lil Wayne denied all the allegations and claimed that the rapper didn’t even have a gun.
The incident reportedly happened in the rapper’s Hidden Hills, CA home. The court doc further shows the former guard claiming that he had to incur medical expenses, lost wages, and had to endure emotional distress due to the alleged assault.
He is suing Lil Wayne for compensation and punitive damages. Till now, no one from Lil Wayne’s side has spoken anything about the alleged lawsuit.
