Rapper Gucci Mane held at gunpoint and robbed by his own label artist in Dallas
Texas. A sensational report has emerged revealing that world-renowned American rapper Gucci Mane was kidnapped and robbed at gunpoint by an artist from his own recording label in Dallas, Texas.
According to U.S. prosecutors, rapper Pooh Shiesty (Lontrell Williams Jr.), who is signed to Gucci Mane's music label '1017 Records,' orchestrated the incident.
It is alleged that under the guise of a meeting, Gucci Mane was lured into a recording studio, held hostage, and forced to sign documents terminating his contract. An FBI report states that during the incident on January 10, Pooh Shiesty pointed a sophisticated black handgun at Gucci Mane and threatened his life.
During the ordeal, he stole Gucci Mane's wedding ring, an expensive watch, earrings, and cash. The incident involved eight other individuals, including Pooh Shiesty's father, Lontrell Williams Sr., who all brandished weapons and robbed other people present in the studio. The group also seized Rolex watches, Louis Vuitton bags, and AirPods from the victims.
Surprisingly, within hours of the robbery, the suspects posted photos and videos on social media flaunting the stolen jewelry and items. According to federal prosecutor Ryan Raybould, Gucci Mane and the other victims held hostage in the studio believed they were going to be killed. Their lives were spared only after the suspects ordered them to leave the building and get into their vehicles.
In connection with this serious crime, eight individuals, including Pooh Shiesty, were arrested on Wednesday across Dallas, Memphis, and Nashville, while one suspect remains at large. The arrested individuals face federal charges of kidnapping and armed robbery. If convicted, they could face up to life imprisonment.
