Jaquan Smith, the bodyguard and driver who was driving the SUV the night that Megan Thee Stallion was shot by Tory Lanez, said in a sworn statement to California Court of Appeals that it was Megan’s then-friend Kelsey Harris, who had a gun in her hands at the time of the shooting.
In a sworn affidavit, Smith claims Kelsey was holding a gun and that Lanez tried to take the gun from Kelsey when it was fired.
“Both Ms. Pete, and Mr. Peterson returned to the car after a few minutes,” Smith said in his sworn statement. “Ms. Pete was bickering but I am unsure of the exact words she was saying. She seemed upset. The four of us left Ms. Jenner’s residence.”

He says Megan and Tory got into an argument and at one point, Megan hopped out to sit at a bus stop. She and Tory talked before returning to the vehicle.
“Ms. Pete started the argument again and Ms. Harris asked what was going on. Mr. Peterson told her that he and Ms. Pete had been dating and intimate,” Smith continued in his sworn statement.”
According to the driver, Lanez had been seeing both of them in an “intimate” way, which caused the drama.
He said he pulled the car over and Megan and Kelsey started fighting.
Kelsey allegedly pulled out the weapon and Megan tried to take it from her. Smith says Lanez tried to intervene to stop the fight but the gun went off. The bodyguard says he did not see who pulled the trigger.
