Migos Rapper Offset Has Been Hospitalized After Getting Shot At Florida Casino

The rapper Offset was hospitalized after being shot Monday evening near a casino in Florida, according to his representative, who said he is in stable condition.
Offset, whose real name is Kiari Kendrell Cephus, was formerly married to Cardi B, with whom he has three children, and was a member of the chart-topping rap trio Migos, which lost a fellow member in the fatal shooting of rapper Takeoff in 2022.
The Seminole Police Department said in a statement that a shooting occurred at a valet area outside the Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood, Florida, after 7 p.m. Monday.
Two people were detained, and one person sustained injuries that were not life-threatening, police said. The police department did not identify the victim or those detained.
The injured individual was transported to Memorial Regional Hospital, police said. CNN has reached out to the hospital.
“The site is secure and there is no threat to the public,” the police department said. “Operations continue as normal.”
The Atlanta-based trio Migos—consisting of rappers Offset, Quavo, and Takeoff—rose to prominence with the 2013 hit “Versace” and later earned Grammy nominations for Best Rap Album with 2018’s “Culture,” while a track from it earned a nomination for Best Rap Performance.
The group disbanded after Takeoff was shot and killed in November 2022, after an argument broke out during a private party at a bowling alley in Houston, police said at the time.
The following year, Quavo, who was Takeoff’s uncle, turned to gun violence prevention, joining forces with the Community Justice Action Fund to meet with lawmakers in Washington, DC, and in 2024 co-hosting a summit on the issue with then–U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris.
