Tekashi 6ix9ine’s mother was held at gunpoint as a group of masked burglars robbed the troubled rapper’s Florida mansion — as he was out livestreaming with recently arrested YouTuber Jack Doherty, according to a report.
Surveillance footage obtained by TMZ shows the four gunmen dressed in all black break into the musician’s Palm Beach home through the garage and confront his terrified 60-year-old mother, Natividad Perez-Hernandez.
Her voice shakes as she speaks with the robbers, as her family dog watches on, video shows.
One of the intruders stays with Perez-Hernandez throughout the robbery, ensuring she could not cry out or call for help, as the other suspects tore up the home looking for valuables, according to the clip.
They demanded cash and car keys, the Palm Beach Police Department told TMZ.
Additional footage from outside the house shows one of the masked suspects grab Perez-Hernandez’s hand and escort her outside, before something seems to catch his eye and make him take her back inside, followed by the dog.
Tekashi 6ix9ine, a 29-year-old Brooklyn native whose legal name is Daniel Hernandez, was not home at the time. Instead, he was live-streaming with Doherty, a day after the 22-year-old YouTuber was arrested in Miami for drug possession.
The suspects are believed to have fled in a getaway vehicle, cops said. It’s not clear what, if anything, they took.
Cops who rushed to the home were unable to track down the gunmen despite searching the house and the surrounding area with a K-9 unit, according to TMZ. No arrests have been made.
The face-tattooed “GOOBA” rapper, who has dealt with a laundry list of legal issues since gaining fame, confessed last month to punching a man who taunted him for infamously testifying against his own gang, violating the terms of his probation.
He socked the man in the face after he mocked him for snitching against the Nine Trey Gangsta Blood gang as part of a 2019 plea deal in a racketeering case against the gang members.
Hernandez pleaded guilty earlier this summer to violating the terms of his supervised release by stashing MDMA and cocaine at his Florida mansion.
As part of the plea bargain, prosecutors agreed to drop previous probation violations tied to gun and drug crimes and allowed Hernandez to complete 300 hours of community service ahead of sentencing.
Hernandez was sentenced to two years in prison in 2019 after he cooperated with federal investigators against his former gang in the case accusing him of using the gang as his “personal hit squad.”
He was let out early, in April 2020 — during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic — because he has asthma.
