According to published reports, incarcerated rapper Bobby Shmurda was recently involved in a fight in prison.
According to TMZ, a fight broke out Friday (May 15) at Otis Bantum Correctional Center involving Bobby and five other inmates all throwing blows. Guards eventually quelled the melee with pepper spray. According to jail officials, the fight allegedly involved Crips and Bloods.
Bobby is currently awaiting trial on conspiracy charges. His hearing is scheduled for June 25, along with fellow GS9 member Rowdy Rebel. The rappers, along with several other members of their crew, have been locked up since December when they were arrested in a studio raid and hit with over 100 varying charges ranging from, conspiracy, murder, assault, drugs and weapons, following a 2-year investigation by the New York Police Department.
Bobby has maintained his innocence on multiple occasions. “I’m just a young, black kid coming from a nasty neighborhood. I made it out, and a lot of people don’t want to see that,” he recently told New York Magazine. I’m guilty for where I live. I was never part of no gang. That’s just because of the neighborhood.”
