The 30-year-old rapper, legal name Daystar Peterson, was accused of shooting Megan Thee Stallion more than two years ago in Southern California. Prosecutors said the incident took place in July 2020, after he, Megan, and their associates left a house party at Kylie Jenner’s Hollywood home.

The group had reportedly been traveling in an Escalade when Lanez and Megan, born Megan Pete, began having an argument. The Houston rapper claimed the situation became so heated that she decided to exit the vehicle once it had stopped on a residential street. Megan said it was at that time that Lanez opened fire and wounded her in the feet.
