During his session, an unidentified stranger stabbed the 26-year-old musician, in the leg.

Later on Wednesday, the rapper, known for hits like “Thotiana,” shared what seems to be surveillance footage of the altercation on his Instagram Story. In the accompanying caption, he conveyed his regret that he would no longer be able to participate in his scheduled fight on October 14 due to being stabbed.
While the LAPD confirmed that a man was transported to a local hospital with a stab wound and was conscious and breathing, they refrained from confirming the individual’s identity as Blueface.
The video clip posted by Blueface shows a situation where an agitated man in a white tank top and jeans approaches the rapper, who is geared up with boxing gloves and a chest protector.
Another individual, identified as a trainer steps between them. The video also captures a dog running in the background. A heated exchange unfolds between the parties, and Blueface maneuvers around to deliver a forceful right punch to the approaching man’s face with punches followed.
As the altercation escalates, the man takes a step back and seemingly retrieves a knife from his pocket. Unfortunately, the footage ends before the alleged stabbing takes place.
In a subsequent update on Instagram, Blueface shared details about his recovery process and added a touch of levity.
The incident highlighted the gravity of someone introducing a weapon into a situation primarily involving fists and then Rapper Blueface gets stabbed.
Recent reports have indicated that the suspected attacker has been taken into custody. He was arrested on Wednesday afternoon for felony assault with a deadly weapon and is currently detained in jail.
