Toronto Police have apprehended an individual who attempted to gain access to rapper Drake’s property in the Canadian city. Authorities responded to the incident after receiving reports of an attempted intrusion.
According to sources familiar with Drake’s property, the individual did not break in but was intercepted by security personnel at the gate and turned over to the police.
Police Response and Mental Health Considerations:
Authorities have clarified that the incident is not considered a criminal matter and have refrained from disclosing details about the apprehended individual, citing the Mental Health Act.
This act provides guidelines for handling mental health crises and allows individuals to receive emergency assessments without consent in Ontario.
Relation to Previous Shooting Incident:
The attempted intrusion occurred at the exact location of a shooting incident that took place the previous day at Drake’s property. However, police have emphasized that the two incidents are unrelated.
The shooting incident on Tuesday resulted in a security guard sustaining severe injuries. Police believe the guard was shot from a vehicle that fled the scene. Drake, who was involved in a recent rap beef with Kendrick Lamar, was not harmed during the shooting.
Current Status and Investigation:
The injured security guard is hospitalized in serious condition, while Drake’s representatives have refrained from commenting on the incident, citing a continued police investigation. It remains unclear whether Drake was present at the time of either incident.
