A security guard working at Drake’s $100 million home in Toronto, Canada has been shot, authorities said on Tuesday.
CNN reports that Police received a call to Drake’s home on Tuesday about a drive-by shooting incident.
Upon reaching the home, the authorities found a wounded man, 48 years old who was rushed to the hospital in serious condition.
Inspector Paul Krawczyk with Toronto Police disclosed this during a press conference on Tuesday.
According to the police, the security guard was working outside the gate at the home when he was shot. He is currently hospitalized in serious condition.
Krawczyk added that Drake’s team is in contact with the authorities and is assisting with investigations, but he declined to comment on whether Drake was present at the property at the time of the incident.
When asked by journalists if the shooting had anything to do with the recent feud Drake has been embroiled in with fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar, Krawczyk said no motive has yet been determined.
He added there were multiple suspects involved, who left the area in a vehicle, and investigators are reviewing video of the incident.
Drake’s legal representatives are yet to comment on the matter.
He is one of the best-selling recording artists of all time. A five-time Grammy Award winner known for hits like “Nice For What,” Drake was recognized by the Recording Industry Association of America last year for becoming the first artist to sell more than 200 million units.
The lyrical battle between Drake and Lamar intensified recently as each released songs about the other, with personal and professional jabs that have fueled online debate among their fans.
