It’s the prison drama no one saw coming. Tory Lanez — the once high-flying rapper who fell from grace after shooting Megan Thee Stallion — has been violently attacked behind bars in a shocking twist straight out of a Hollywood crime thriller.
The 31-year-old Canadian artist, real name Daystar Peterson, was stabbed by a fellow inmate at California Correctional Institution in Tehachapi. Sources say the incident exploded around 7:20 a.m. on May 12, when a routine morning turned into a scene of chaos and bloodshed.
Yes, you read that right. Tory Lanez was STABBED.
Correctional officers reportedly scrambled to the scene, locking down the area as alarms blared. Paramedics rushed in. Lanez was racing against time — wheeled out of the prison and taken straight to a hospital in Bakersfield.
Miraculously, his injuries were labeled non-life-threatening — but insiders say it was way too close for comfort.
This comes less than two years into Lanez’s 10-year sentence for the infamous 2020 shooting of hip-hop superstar Megan Thee Stallion. The Grammy-winning “Savage” rapper made headlines when she testified that Lanez shot her in the feet after a heated argument. The internet exploded. Stan wars ignited. Misogynoir, celebrity violence, cancel culture — all collided in one messy, unforgettable court case.
The motive behind the prison stabbing? Still a mystery. But the Department of Corrections has launched an investigation, and the Kern County District Attorney’s Office is digging deep.
Meanwhile, Lanez’s team has stayed eerily silent — no official statement, no comment. But fans are buzzing. Social media is in meltdown. Is this karma? Is it prison politics? Or is it just the dangerous price of fame behind bars?
What’s clear is this: Tory Lanez isn’t living the high life anymore. His music may still be floating around on streaming platforms, but his real-life story just took a brutal turn — one that leaves a bloody mark on an already scandal-plagued legacy.
