New details are emerging after Offset was shot outside a Florida casino, with YouTuber Ceddy Nash claiming Lil Tjay was knocked unconscious during the fight that led to the gunfire.
In a video shared Tuesday, Ceddy alleged that Lil Tjay and several people with him confronted Offset outside the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla.
“Here’s where things get interesting,” Ceddy said. “Lil Tjay got knocked out.”
According to Ceddy, the person taken into custody at the scene was not connected to either rapper.
“The dude who got arrested was just a fan of Offset,” he claimed. “So, Tjay got his a– knocked out by a fan.”
Authorities have not confirmed that account.

Police arrested Lil Tjay, whose real name is Tione Merritt, following the altercation. He was charged with disorderly conduct and driving without a valid license.
His attorney, Dawn M. Florio, denied online speculation that the rapper was involved in the shooting.
“Lil Tjay has not been shot, nor has Lil Tjay been charged with any shooting,” Florio said in a statement. “Any reporting to the contrary is false.”
Offset’s representative confirmed the rapper was shot and transported to a nearby hospital, where he remains in stable condition.
Offset first rose to fame as a member of Migos before launching a solo career. Lil Tjay broke through in 2018 with the hit “Resume” and later released the albums True 2 Myself and 222.
