6ix9ine was handcuffed and removed from a Florida nightclub after an altercation just weeks before he faces court for violating probation.
6ix9ine was removed from a nightclub in Hialeah and briefly detained by police after a heated confrontation with another patron on July 6, adding to his growing list of public incidents.
Officers responded to a disturbance at Playpen 2 around 4 a.m., where the rapper was involved in a dispute with another individual. Both men were escorted out by police.
Video captured outside the venue showed 6ix9ine in handcuffs, though he was released shortly after. He can be seen in the footage raging at at least a dozen cops.
No one was arrested due to what authorities described as a lack of cooperation from those involved.
The incident comes just weeks before 6ix9ine is scheduled to appear in court for violating the terms of his supervised release.
In March, law enforcement raided his Florida home after receiving a tip from a confidential informant about drugs and firearms on the property.
During the search, officers found three MDMA pills and a bag containing cocaine residue. A Glock 9mm handgun, fentanyl, marijuana and other controlled substances were also seized.
6ix9ine was detained for six hours while the property was searched.
The plea deal is expected to help him avoid a full evidentiary hearing originally set for July.
6ix9ine is currently serving a five-year term of supervised release stemming from his 2019 federal conviction. That case involved racketeering, firearms offenses and violent crimes linked to his role in the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods.
He cooperated with federal prosecutors by testifying against several gang members, which earned him a reduced sentence of two years in prison and 1,000 hours of community service.
The nightclub scuffle is the latest in a string of public incidents that have followed Hernandez since his release. His legal team has not commented on whether the Hialeah altercation could impact his probation status.
