Three people were shot outside Justin Bieber’s afterparty at The Nice Guy restaurant in Los Angeles on Friday, February 11, 2022, after several people got into a fight.
Hosts Justin Bieber, 27, was hosting a star-studded afterparty at the swanky eatery following his earlier pre-Super Bowl performance alongside Drake at the Pacific Design Center.
Rappers Kodak Black, Lil Baby, and Gunna were leaving the party around 2:45 a.m. when a fight broke out with the rappers’ friends who were in a red Ferrari Sports Car, and Kodak Black took a swing at someone, TMZ first reported.
‘The fight was believed to have started with someone in Kodak Black’s entourage,’ a source told Page Six. ‘After others jumped in, shots were fired…and then all hell broke loose.’
People began running for their lives as shots broke out, according to eyewitnesses. Multiple shots were fired hitting three men aged 19, 24, and 60, the LAPD confirmed to DailyMail.com.
NBC News reported that Kodak Black, 24, was one of the victims. The LAPD would not confirm or deny the report that the Florida rapper, whose legal name is Bill Kapri, is one of the victims.
The 19-year-old and 60-year-old were transported to the hospital from the scene. The 24-year-old left the scene but was later taken to the hospital.
Their names have not been released but all three are all reported to be in stable condition.
One man, who is believed to be a friend of the rappers, was reportedly shot in the butt, another man, an autograph collector, is believed to have been shot in the foot and the third was seen shot in the shoulder.
The shooters are still on the run and no arrests have been made, LAPD confirmed to DailyMail.com. No suspects have been named as the investigation remains ongoing.
The Bieber’s were pictured making a hasty exit from the trendy restaurant after a fight broke out, which led to the reported shooting outside.
Justin and model Hailey, 25, were keen to get as far away from the place as possible as they were ushered out by their security amid the troubles just outside the venue.
Justin cut a glum figure as he followed his security guard while hurrying out of the restaurant as Hailey stayed close by.
The chart-topper was casually dressed in a white vest and hoodie, teamed with black trousers and white trainers. He also covered up in a black cap and dark sunglasses.
Hailey, meanwhile, stunned in a figure-hugging black maxi dress and simple black heels.
The beauty walked with her head lowered and used a hand to shield her face as she made her way outside amid all the commotion.
The couple were then seen climbing into the back of their van before it drove off.
Earlier, the pair was seen making a glamorous arrival at the event, with Justin being the perfect gentleman as he helped his wife down from the vehicle.
The afterparty, ahead of the Super Bowl, had a star-studded guestlist with the likes of Leonardo Di Caprio, Tobey Maguire, Kendall Jenner, Drake, and Khloe Kardashian said to be in attendance.
Amber Rose was also seen at the event, putting on a head-turning display in a ruffled PVC top and heavily ripped black jeans.
The model added chunky black boots, a silver clutch, and a chunky silver chain to her look, while she shielded her eyes with dark shades.
Earlier on Friday, Justin was far away from any drama as he put on an electric performance at the Super Bowl Homecoming Weekend concert in West Hollywood.
The Love Yourself singer commanded the stage as he strutted up and down while belting out his tracks for fans.
Super Bowl LVI takes place on Sunday, February 13, and football fans will get to see the Los Angeles Rams take on the Cincinnati Bengals.
They’ll be playing at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, which happens to be the Rams’ home stadium.
