The spokesperson said he is "up and walking" and thanked the doctors, nurses, and hospital staff for taking care of him. "We're incredibly grateful to the doctors, nurses and the entire hospital staff who took such great care of him," said the representative. According to Variety, Offset was shot near the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino on Monday. He was taken to the hospital, where his team earlier said he was stable and under close observation. Police said two people were detained after the incident, and the investigation is still ongoing. The same night, rapper Lil Tjay was arrested in connection with the case on a disorderly conduct charge. He was also booked for a traffic violation and was later released from jail the next day. After reports linked Lil Tjay to the shooting, his lawyer denied the claims. In a statement, attorney Dawn M. Florio said, "Lil Tjay has not been shot, nor has Lil Tjay been charged with any shooting. Any reporting to the contrary is false." (ANI)
