The shooting unfolded at around 2am ET on Tuesday morning at the rappers lavish Park Lane Circle residence in the citys prominent Bridle Path neighborhood of Canada. Toronto police said that the security guard was standing outside of the gates in front of the property when he was shot by an unknown assailant. One suspect fled the scene in a vehicle, according to information posted by the Toronto Police Service on X. The security guard, who has not been named, suffered a gunshot wound to the chest and was not conscious when officers arrived at the home, police said. He was transported to a hospital with serious injuries. It is not clear if Drake was home at the time but his team is said to be cooperating with investigators.

Lamar created three similar diss songs about Drake in just 36 hours. Following the diss tracks release, Lamar fans took to Google Maps to rename parts of Drakes neighborhood after Lamar. On one pin, fans wrote kendrickownsdrake meanwhile other nearby homes were renamed CertifiedKidLover, Kendricks Pool, and ChildMOElester. The feud between the two stars began a month ago when Lamar hit out at the Canadian rapper and J Cole in his song First Person Shooter. Drake has responded with a diss track accusing Lamar of domestic violence. Lamar in turn has accused Drake of having a secret daughter. In another song titled, Not Like Us, the Humble rapper calls Drake a certified paedophile and makes multiple references to alleged interactions with younger women.
