Rapper Blueface has firmly pushed back against allegations that members of his entourage stole a bag from former professional boxer Adrien Broner during Saturday night's concert in Los Angeles. The incident reportedly occurred when Broner appeared unresponsive on stage and was subsequently carried off by friends and paramedics.
Speaking on a livestream broadcast on Sunday, Blueface stated he had no idea what had happened to Broner or his belongings. According to TMZ, the bag in question was rumoured to contain between $50,000 and $100,000, though neither the alleged theft nor the exact amount of cash was officially confirmed.
The rapper said he had never seen Broner in such a condition and expressed alarm upon witnessing the scene. He explained that Broner did not join him onstage because he was "looking too crazy," according to Blueface's account.
Footage from the livestream captured Broner slumped on a couch and appearing unresponsive. Friends helped carry him down a flight of stairs and placed him in a wheelchair, after which paramedics wheeled him to a vehicle and assisted him inside.
The report did not establish what caused Broner to become unresponsive, leaving the circumstances surrounding the incident unresolved.
