DaBaby shot a trespasser in self-defense on his property in North Carolina. According to TMZ, DaBaby exchanged words with the intruder before shooting him in the leg. DaBaby would call 911 after the shooting and cooperate with the police as they arrived.
DaBaby was home at his estate in Troutman, North Carolina, when someone came onto the property uninvited. The gunshot wound is considered non-life-threatening, and the victim was transferred to a hospital for treatment.
