Rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine’s Florida home was ransacked during a terrifying armed invasion Sunday night, with four masked gunmen holding his 60-year-old mother against her will while demanding cash and car keys. The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office responded to calls of a home invasion around midnight, but the rapper—real name Daniel Hernandez—was not present, reportedly livestreaming with YouTuber Jack Doherty at the time of the incident.
Inside the Home Invasion
Police say the suspects physically restrained Tekashi 6ix9ine’s mother outside while they ransacked the interior for valuables. Although law enforcement conducted a K-9 search of the property, the attackers fled the scene before deputies arrived. Authorities have not reported any injuries, but the ordeal has left the family shaken and prompted increased security measures.
Recent Violence and Ongoing Investigation
This frightening incident follows a series of violent episodes since Tekashi 6ix9ine’s release from prison in early 2021, including a high-profile assault at a Florida gym and ongoing tensions linked to his cooperation with federal prosecutors against the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods organization. Security footage, social media posts, and witness testimony will be central as the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office continues its investigation.
Public Response and Next Steps
Fans and fellow musicians have expressed concern for Tekashi 6ix9ine, who is under strict watch after a recent mall fight led to renewed legal trouble. The artist himself remains active on social media and in livestreams—a habit that has drawn the attention of authorities and the public. As the case evolves, updates on suspect identities and legal developments are expected in the coming days.
