What happened to Kodak Black?
Around 2.45am on Saturday morning, a shooting took place outside of The Nice Guy restaurant in Los Angeles, California.

In attendance was rapper Kodak Black, age 24.
After a fight broke out outside of the venue, shots were fired and four victims - all male - were struck, according to LAPD.

With no life-threatening injuries, all three are expected to make a full recovery.

Kodak Black filed lawsuit against prison bureau
The rapper has had a troubled time in prison.
In September 2020 the Atlanta Black Star reported that Black had filed a lawsuit against the Federal Bureau of Prisons. He claimed prison guards at Big Sandy Penitentiary in Inez, Kentucky, had beat, tortured and mentally abused him since his arrival.
He was moved to FTC Oklahoma City soon after, then to Thomson some time following that.
Around this time he publicly asked Donald Trump to commute his sentence.
Criminal history, continued
Black also pled guilty to second-degree criminal possession of a weapon in March 2020, following an April 2019 arrest at the border between the United States and Canada.
The sexual assault charge that still stands against Black related to an incident in Florence back in 2016.
According to the Florence County Public Index, Black’s case is still moving through the court system. If charged, he could face up to 30 additional years in prison.
