Award-winning rapper DaBaby spoke out about a 911 call regarding a recent home intruder shooting at his North Carolina mansion.
He took to Instagram on Apr. 14 to air out his grievances about the media posting the call.
“Media telling n****s business [are] the main reason n****s get fye put on em,” he wrote while sharing The Shade Room’s post about the recent incident.
According to news reports, DaBaby, whose real name is Jonathan Lyndale Kirk, was at his Charlotte home when an unidentified man trespassed on his property. When police arrived at the scene, they found the individual suffering from a non-life-threatening gunshot wound. First responders then transported him to a medical facility for treatment.
911 Calls From DaBaby’s Residence Has Surfaced
911 audio revealed that someone at Kirk’s location contacted authorities after the intruder was shot. The trespasser was allegedly in agony as he was wailing in the background.
“I shot him in his leg…because he’s trespassing on my property, calling me by my name,” the caller said.
When the dispatcher asked him if the shooting victim was alert, he responded, “Do you not hear this man, bro?”
He then advised the dispatcher not to repeat the same question again before the person over the phone asked him to secure his alleged weapon. The caller responded by saying the weapon was secure, but he refused to put it down because the trespasser could still be a threat, and others may have appeared.
DaBaby Not Officially Accused Of Shooting Trespasser
Police have not accused Kirk of the shooting and have reportedly been investigating the entire incident. They also confirmed that the home introducer was not a guest at the Troutman residence.
“Just like any other property owner, they’re entitled to their right to secure their property and to make sure [no one] comes in,” Troutman Police Chief Josh Watson said.
A concrete wall and security gate reportedly surrounded Kirk’s mansion. There were also warning signs saying “No Trespassing” and “We have guns and shovels” around it.
