American rapper 50 Cent is now a suspect for criminal felony battery after throwing a microphone at a fan and splitting her forehead open during his performance.
The rapper is said to have hurled multiple microphones during his performance out of frustration because they were all faulty. But the microphone that hit the victim, later identified as Bryhana Monegain, was aimed at the production crew, not her. Unfortunately, the force with which it was thrown hit her smack in the forehead, creating a hole.
Fellow rapper Cardi B recently found herself in a similar pickle, after tossing a microphone at a fan during her performance at the beginning of August.
In her case, she asked the concertgoers to splash water on her because she was hot. For some reason, she took offense to a particular fan who splashed water on her and chucked the mic in her direction but it ricocheted off her and bounced onto someone else. One of those ladies ended up pressing charges against Cardi B but she didn’t face criminal charges because the police in Las Vegas dropped their investigation.
50 Cent has not spoken on his charges.
