17-year old Miami rapper Lil Pump, born Gazzy Garcia, was arrested Wednesday, February 14, for firing a gun inside his home. But his team and the police disagree on the reason why.
TMZ reports that Pump's manager claims three unknown men were trying to pry open the front door to his client's San Fernando Valley apartment. The suspects then fired a single shot through the door.
When police responded to the scene Pump's story seemed to fall apart.
Cops say they didn't find any intruders. They did discover marijuana and believe the "Gucci Gang" hit maker had been smoking.
In addition, the trajectory of the bullet indicated it was fired from inside the home. The gun was found in the bushes below the balcony of Pump's apartment. It was unloaded, but the ammunition for it was in the rapper's home.
Pump was arrested and charged with discharging a weapon in an inhabited place. He's being held in juvenile detention.
His mom, who wasn't home at the time, is under investigation for having an unsecured gun at home and endangering a minor.
The apartments have a surveillance system. Pump's team believes footage will show that there were men trying to enter his home. They claim he only fired the gun out of fear. He's sure one of the suspects was shot.
The surveillance footage is being reviewed.
