In July 2020, Megan Thee Stallion was reportedly shot in the foot while out with fellow rapper Tory Lanez and a friend.
When Megan first opened up about the incident, she posted this statement: "The narrative that is being reported about Sunday night’s events are inaccurate and I’d like to set the record straight," Megan wrote in a now-deleted Instagram post. "On Sunday morning, I suffered gunshot wounds, as a result of a crime that was committed against me and done with the intention to physically harm me."
People online began to challenge the validity of her story, and things only got worse when she publicly named Tory as her accused shooter. To silence the noise, Megan shared a graphic photo of her wound accompanied by a caption asking, "Why would I lie about being shot?"
And in October 2020, nearly three months after the incident took place, Tory Lanez was officially charged with felony assault against Megan.
Tory has continued to claim his innocence throughout the investigation. If convicted, he could face a maximum of 22 years and eight months in prison. He's expected back in court on April 5.
And with both rappers offering two different accounts of the incident, fans have begun to take sides and voice their opinion online. Most recently, a Twitter user insinuated Megan Thee Stallion was lying about being shot.
To which the "Thot Shit" rapper responded:
The heated exchange between the two ended after the Twitter user made this insensitive joke.
Unfortunately, this wasn't the first time Megan had to call someone out on Twitter regarding this situation. Last month, she put DJ Akademiks on blast for posting false information about the case.
And the tweet has been deleted:
