French Montana recently addressed the gunfire that took place at a Miami restaurant where the shooting of his music video was in progress. Fortunately, the rapper was able to escape safely.
Montana posted a tweet where he said that he was in Miami to celebrate the release of his mixtape, Coke Boys 6: Money Heist Edition, with his friends at a restaurant called Licking. He continued:
“We unfortunately were at the wrong place, at the wrong time when an incident took place that left people hurt. Our thoughts & prayers are w/ the victims & families at this time.”
The incident took place outside a restaurant called Licking on January 5 and was the result of a dispute that started somewhere else. The restaurant also issued a statement saying that they were unaware of French Montana’s music video shoot and that they were not at all associated with the incident.
