Nardo Wick broke his silence after two members of his entourage knocked a fan, who is in critical condition now, unconscious.
A now-viral video was uploaded following Wick's show at Club Skye in Tampa, Fla., on Monday, November 27. The clip in question shows a fan who tries to ask for a photo with the rapper, but two of his entourage stop the man before punching him repeatedly until he falls to the ground.
Wick tells his team to chill while the fan suffers from assault.
Nardo Wick Responds to the Video
On X, Wick addressed the recent incident as his fan, identified as 20-year-old George Obregon Jr., remains hospitalized in critical condition due to a brain bleed. The rapper said he does not condone what happened to his supporters in any way.
"I expressed to him and his mama how sorry and concerned I was that it happened to him, multiple times before anything was even posted on the internet," he said. "I was even gone make a post to try to find out who he was before his mama text me. I can't control another grown man actions, I ain't know that was gone happen, and I was mad when it happened.
Wick, born Horace Bernard Walls III, revealed he gave his number to Obregon Jr.'s mother on the night of the assault. He also clarified he tried to stop his men as seen in the viral video, adding that a longer version would have shown how mad he was for his entourage's treatment.
According to police, Obregon Jr. approached the rapper around 1:15 a.m. that night.
Meanwhile, the victim's mother took to Facebook to speak out about the attack.
"At no point was my son aggressive at no f------ point did he show any sign of harm!!! My son wanted a stupid f------ picture with his favorite artist!!!!And This is what he gets!!!!!!! I am sick to my stomach to think about how this could have turned out!!!!"
She begged the public to help get justice for her "sweetest and gentlest" son.
Obregon Jr.'s father also told Daily Mail on Wednesday, November 29, that Wick has not spoken to the family.
A spokesperson for Tampa Police did not share whether the brain bleed could leave him lifelong damage, but it urged the public to help them identify the attackers.
