Controversial rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine, also known as Daniel Hernandez, found himself in the grip of law enforcement in the Dominican Republic after allegedly assaulting two music producers, Cristian Anthony Rojas and Nelson Alfonso Hilario García.
The incident unfolded amidst what is rumored to be tension between Hernandez and another artist, Yailin La Más Viral, who is close to the rapper. On a recent Friday, officials confirmed the arrest took place at the Hotel Balcones in the Dominican city of Sanchez.
As details of the incident emerged, reports suggested Hernandez and a group of men sought out Yailin at a recording studio in La Vega, where she had been working with producer Diamond La Mafia. The motive behind the assault remains unclear, but speculations are rife that Hernandez was "jealous" of Diamond La Mafia's association with Yailin.
One of the alleged victims revealed to local publications that the attack left him with a jaw injury, necessitating surgery.

The arrest garnered significant media attention, with videos circulating online showing the rapper, identifiable in a black ski mask, being detained.
This attention isn’t new to Hernandez, who has repeatedly found himself amidst controversy. Earlier this year, he was attacked at a South Florida gym. Disturbing footage of that assault displayed several men ambushing Hernandez in a restroom.
Hernandez's run-ins with the law are well-documented. In 2015, he faced charges related to an inappropriate video featuring a minor, to which he pleaded guilty. Later in 2018, he was arrested for links to the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods gang and faced several criminal charges.
Opting for cooperation, Hernandez testified against his gang members, which led to a reduced two-year sentence. Despite these challenges, his career continued to flourish after his release. His life story even inspired a 2021 Hulu documentary titled "69: The Saga of Danny Hernandez." With this recent Dominican Republic incident, the world watches closely as Hernandez's tumultuous journey continues to unfold. With his history, it remains to be seen how these latest allegations will impact the rapper's career and personal life.
