In a distressing turn of events, Natividad Perez-Hernandez, the mother of rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine, experienced a terrifying ordeal at her Florida residence on Sunday evening. She was the victim of a violent home invasion where four masked and armed individuals assaulted her.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office swiftly responded to the alarming report of the home invasion, sending officers to the scene. According to spokesperson Teri Barbera, the authorities were alerted to the burglary involving the rap artist’s mother, as detailed in a statement provided to the Sun Sentinel.
The incident unfolded around 10 p.m. local time, prompting road patrol deputies to rush to the scene where the burglary was actively taking place. Barbera explained that during the invasion, one of the intruders physically restrained Perez-Hernandez while others rifled through the property, demanding she reveal the location of money and keys.
At the moment of this unsettling attack, Tekashi 6ix9ine was engaged in a livestream with YouTuber Jack Doherty. Notably, Doherty had recently made headlines due to his arrest in Miami on Saturday for drug possession.
Efforts have been made to contact representatives for Tekashi 6ix9ine for additional statements regarding this incident.

The Bushwick, New York-born musical artist took to Instagram Stories on Monday in an effort to ‘clear up all the fake news and rumors’ circulating about the story.

‘I’m on house arrest,’ the Gummo performer said. ‘The world knows this – it’s a fact. I’ve been on house arrest. I think everyone in America and everyone across the world knows that I’m on house arrest.’
The Gooba performer showed off an ankle monitor he was wearing to illustrate the point that he remains under house arrest.
He continued, ‘Yesterday, they allowed me to leave for work. People, I guess, saw that I was on live stream with Jack Doherty. They took that opportunity to f***ing do some p**** s***.’
