Tekashi 6ix9ine Gym Beating Suspects Finally Identified: What Are They Charged With?

The three men who were responsible for the gruesome beating that Tekashi 6ix9ine sustained in a gym in Florida last week have finally been arrested and identified.

With ages 23 to 43, the three suspects in 6ix9ine's assault case are facing huge legal setbacks.

6ix9ine Suspects Arrested, Identified

Last week, rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine was beaten down seriously in an LA Fitness Gym in South Florida.

In a now-viral video, 6ix9ine was kicked down at the ground, and at one point on the video, he shows himself bloody and with a busted face.

Since then, news and rumors about who the people are have come about, with many speculating that the suspects were someone that the rapper had known before.

According to NBC News Florida, the three suspects were finally charged in accordance with the 6ix9ine Gym beating.

Octavius Medina, the youngest among the three, at 23 years old; Rafael Medina Jr., at 43 years old; and Anthony Maldonado, at 25.

All three of them are booked with robbery and assault charges.

To date, little is still known about the three suspects, but after netizens have scoured the internet, they seemingly found out that one of the three suspects was former security detail of 6ix9ine.

Given 6ix9ine's history of running from people, it could be highly likely that he has run away from them because of money issues.

"Employees heard the disturbance and the perpetrators fled," Lance Lazarro, 6ix9ine's lawyer, said in a statement about the encounter at the time. "Police in South Florida were called and he [Hernandez] was transported via ambulance to a local hospital."

Lazarro told TMZ that EMS and police rushed to the scene as soon as Gym staffers knew about the situation.

Tekashi 6ix9ine Health Condition

As of this writing, Tekashi 6ix9ine's health condition has not yet been confirmed, as photos and updates about him were scarce.

The last time that an update about him came about was right after the Gym beating. It was reported that 6ix9ine suffered major blows to his face, his ribs, his back, and his limbs right after the shooting.

It is still not known if he had undergone any procedures or even exploratory surgeries to determine if he had internal bleeding from the pretty serious physical assault he had experienced.
