Youngboy Never Broke Again wasn't hit.

According to TMZ, Youngboy Never Broke Again was shot at earlier today near the Trump Beach Resort in Miami.

The report said that shots were fired near the hotel. The rapper is currently in Miami for Rolling Loud weekend where he's expected to perform. He was reportedly staying at the Trump resort while he was in Miami. It's unclear what led to the gunfire but eyewitnesses said the shooters opened fire on him. Eyewitnesses who were on the scene have said that NBA Youngboy is okay but his girlfriend was one of the people that got shot. Police confirmed that at least one person is dead from the shooting.

It's been alleged that Youngboy Never Broke Again's bodyguard shot and killed one of the alleged shooters, although this has not been confirmed either.

Videos from the aftermath of the incident surfaced online shortly after. One clip shows Youngboy standing behind the black SUV that he was in during the shooting. Another one showed the scene turning into a frenzy with people rushing into the streets.

Youngboy Never Broke Again is, unfortunately, not the only one who found themselves in some sort of trouble this weekend. Ahead of Kodak Black's performance last night, the rapper was arrested on state and federal firearms charges.
