50 Cent is no longer facing criminal charges after an incident at his Los Angeles show in August. The incident involved 50 Cent throwing a microphone into the crowd, which left a spectator with multiple lacerations to her head and face.
Power 106 radio host Bryhana Monegain filed a police report following the incident, and initially, the case was presented to the L.A. County D.A. as a felony. However, the D.A.’s office ultimately handed the case over to the L.A. City Attorney’s office for further evaluation.
Recent updates from the City Attorney’s office indicate that no criminal charges have been filed against the 48-year-old rapper. Additionally, 50 Cent will not face any charges as long as he remains out of trouble.
Despite the lack of current charges, the case will remain open for one year from the date of the incident. If there are any further incidents involving 50 Cent and Bryhana, the case could be re-evaluated for possible criminal charges.
