Rapper ASAP Rocky prepares for trial on shooting charges

updated
American rapper ASAP Rocky is preparing to stand trial on charges of shooting. The hearing, initially scheduled for November, has been postponed to the end of January next year due to the artist's participation in a charity event in Thailand.

The incident that led to the lawsuit occurred three years ago. The musician's former friend, Relli, claims that ASAP Rocky threatened him with a weapon and even opened fire. It happened in Hollywood—the musicians met to resolve misunderstandings, but it ended in a shooting.

The victim demands compensation for the assault, battery, and emotional distress. The interests of singer Rihanna's spouse (ASAP Rocky) are represented by lawyer Joe Tacopina, who added that the trial is also postponed due to the need to address certain issues related to the disclosure of case information, reports CBSnews.

Zoomboola.com reminds that the performer himself did not plead guilty at the first hearing of the case, which took place in 2022.
