Rapper Offset shot near casino valet in Florida; police detain two people

Rapper Offset was shot Monday evening near the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida, but is now in stable condition, according to his representative.

A representative confirmed that Offset was shot and is now at the hospital being treated. He is in stable condition and doctors are monitoring him closely.

Okay, so here’s the deal: I just got word from the Seminole Police Department about something that went down at the hotel and casino around 7 p.m. Apparently, officers were called to the valet area, and someone ended up needing medical attention. Thankfully, it doesn’t sound like the injuries were life-threatening – they were taken to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood, but are expected to be okay. Still, a bit unsettling, right?

Police have taken two people into custody as they investigate what happened. They’ve secured the area and say things at the Hard Rock are continuing as usual.

Kiari Cephus, better known as the 34-year-old rapper Offset, became famous as part of the hip-hop group Migos. Formed in Atlanta in 2008, Migos achieved widespread recognition in 2013 with their popular song “Versace.”

In 2022, Takeoff, a member of the rap group Migos, was tragically killed in a shooting in Houston. The group broke up soon after his death.
