Drake Bell Was Suicidal Prior To Disappearing, Family & Police Claim

On Thursday (April 13), reports of actor Drake Bell having gone missing practically broke the internet. Some immediately questioned the validity of the news. However, the Daytona Beach Police Department confirmed that they’ve been on the hunt for the Nickelodeon star. He apparently disappeared after 9 PM on Wednesday. Further details remained under wraps at the time, but we now know what caused so much concern among Bell’s friends and family when they couldn’t locate him. According to audio obtained by Page Six today (April 14), he threatened suicide following a feud with his wife, leaving his loved ones overcome with shock and worry.

The sound bite came from a Florida officer’s 911 call. He reported that a “celebrity who had a falling out with his wife” had been sending concerning messages to family members across the country in California. Specifically, Bell threatened to “get drunk and hang himself.” Police became involved upon hearing of the “possible attempted suicide,” opting to ping the Drake and Josh lead’s phone. This later brought authorities to a hotel in Orlando. Here, he was thankfully found alive and well around 11:30 AM yesterday.

Deputies say they’ve “taken action” to ensure that a “mental health evaluation” is scheduled for Bell. He’s been through a rough patch lately, with the separation from his estranged wife, Janet Von Schmeling, continuing to unfold. Aside from that, he’s also recovering from his previous child endangerment scandal, which he plead guilty to in 2021. The 36-year-old was ultimately sentenced to probation, though his reputation still took a serious hit.

As the internet continues to react to word of Drake Bell’s sudden disappearance and resurgence, he let fans know he’s okay by laughing about the mess on Twitter last night. “You leave your phone in the car and don’t answer for the night and this? 😂,” his post addressing the situation reads.

BTB Savage Shooting Suspect Wanted By Police

Houston’s police force announced that they have a suspect in the tragic and fatal shooting of rapper BTB Savage. Moreover, they said on Friday (April 7) that 40-year-old Montrel Lenard Burley is a wanted suspect in the case. Not only that, but they said that they’re also looking for at least one other individual suspected to be guilty for the crime. Savage, real name Darrell Gentry, was fatally shot in Houston on March 30 and pronounced deceased on the scene. Paramedics responded to the 26-year-old’s death and informed police on the case. According to witnesses, officials maintained, two suspects sped off in a black SUV following the shooting.

Furthermore, federal agents also formed part of the investigation, which might be part of something larger. To elaborate, the fallen MC’s family believes his passing was revenge for a San Antonio shooting. Earlier in the year, a man named Omar Richardson reportedly tried to rob BTB Savage. Allegedly, the rapper’s girlfriend shot and killed Richardson in self-defense, and he boasted about it on social media and in an interview with VladTV.

Police Name Suspect In BYB Savage Shooting

“I said ‘Take that off social media,’” BTB Savage’s mother Bernita Ward expressed to ABC 13. “Let this family mourn in peace. They were taunting my son, though, telling him they were going to kill the family, make his momma cry and kill his son. I told my son, ‘Don’t respond. Let it go.’ But their family member came to rob my son. The moral of this story is two mothers lost two amazing sons and that their children would be raised without fathers. That’s the sad thing.” In addition to their revelation of a suspect, police also said anyone with information should reach Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS or the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600.

Unfortunately, said events in the rap world have become far too common. While many debated the case online, many lost sight of the tragic loss of life in the first place. No matter how much he apparently boasted, it’s a sad day when a promising life and career is cut short. For the latest on the BTB Savage case, check back in with HNHH.

Jonathan Majors Arrest: Alleged Assault Victim Is His Girlfriend, Law Enforcement Says

The recent arrest of Jonathan Majors shook the pop culture world, and law enforcement reportedly confirmed that his alleged victim is his girlfriend. Moreover, TMZ recently gave an update on this story where they claim that New York City police gave more details on the shocking incident. Furthermore, these reports suggest that the couple found themselves in a taxi when an argument started between the two. According to TMZ, the 33-year-old’s girlfriend saw that another woman texted his phone, and an altercation ensued. Not only that, but these reports allege that Majors got physical when his girlfriend tried to see these alleged text messages on his device.

Specifically, the report indicates that the Creed III star slapped his girlfriend when she tried to see the messages and then put his hands around her neck. In addition to these details, reports also surfaced that law enforcement responded to a call on Saturday morning (March 25) around the Chelsea area in Manhattan regarding this incident. Afterwards, they rushed Majors’ girlfriend to a nearby hospital after they noticed the visible injuries on her face and body.

Jonathan Majors Faced Arrest For Allegedly Assaulting Girlfriend

Also, they promptly brought the California native into custody and placed him in prison, as they thought there was enough evidence to prove probable cause. However, these fresh reports point to the Marvel actor already leaving jail and being free after his Saturday arrest. Not only that, but a representative for Majors denied any wrongdoing and expressed hope that they’ll clear up the situation.

“He’s done nothing wrong,” they remarked to TMZ. “We look forward to clearing his name and clearing this up.” Given the actor’s meteoric rise to fame and acclaim, many fans expressed outrage, disappointment, shock, and disbelief on social media. Along with that, many also pointed to an alleged history of similar behavior. Still, given that it’s just social media reactions and this is just breaking, people are taking this with a grain of salt. With that being said, people will make their own research, reach their own conclusions, and wait for more information. On that last point, stick around on HNHH for the latest on Jonathan Majors.

6ix9ine Assault: Police Issue Statement

Authorities in Lake Worth just issued a statement regarding the assault on 6ix9ine that took place on Tuesday (March 21). Moreover, South Florida police posted via Twitter that they seek help in this case and are accepting any information. Given the rapper’s reputation as a snitch, which likely fueled the attack, it became a curious turn of events. Still, it’s no reason to brutally beat the “GUMMO” artist, as is shown in various social media clips surfacing online. Following that, on Wednesday (March 22), the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office addressed the situation.

“Last night, our deputies responded to an incident at LA Fitness (8000 Block of Lantana Rd) in Lake Worth,” the official police statement read. “An altercation occurred between several individuals, leaving [6ix9ine] Daniel Hernandez injured. Hernandez was transported to a local hospital to be treated for non life-threatening injuries.” Moreover, he was locked in a room by gym staff after the incident, who rushed him to safety. “We need your help!” the statement continued. “If you have any information, please contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-458-TIPS or stay anonymous by downloading the PBSO app for Apple or Android.”

Police Statement On 6ix9ine Attack

As such, perhaps those who beat the rapper up will eventually come to light, and may even face dire consequences for their actions. After footage surfaced of the LA fitness bathroom assault, where the 26-year-old faced attacks from multiple individuals, many in the rap game and beyond spoke out. For example, Charlamagne Tha God said that it was “only a matter of time,” and Boosie said that “snitches get stitches.” However, the former said that it’s no laughing matter, which the latter certainly doesn’t agree with. Also, some offered words of support in more sympathetic ways.

“It’s unfortunate what happened to 6ix9ine,” Wack 100 shared via Instagram. “He’s a good guy. Life is full of lessons. This isn’t about his so called street situation. This is about decision making on both sides. The ones who filmed and posted themselves will remember this day for years to come. And 69 will now know he has to move accordingly. #staydangerous & don’t hesitate. Wish him a speedy recovery.” Regardless, check back in with HNHH for the latest updates on this story and more from 6ix9ine.

Toosii Films Police Run-In, Claims They Pulled A Gun On Him

Toosii recently had a scary run-in with the police that he filmed in the aftermath, and he claimed that they pulled a gun on him. Moreover, apparently the police saw his gun fall out of his car and saw him reach for it. This prompted them to shout “Gun, gun, gun!” and take hold of their firearms, which is never a safe or secure situation to be in. After all, there have been so many fatal misunderstandings with police that it must’ve been incredibly nerve-wracking. Nevertheless, the rapper and singer then filmed the aftermath of the incident, arguing with several of the police officers that saw him.

In the video clip, you can see one police officer maintain a blank expression as Toosii argues with him. Not only that, but the officers maintained that they weren’t the ones to scream “Gun!” in the incident. From what it looks like, this might’ve been part of something like a traffic stop, because they speak of a ticket later on. However, what highlights the clip is the “Favorite Song” singer’s shock at the fact they pulled a gun on him as well.

Toosii Has Police Encounter Involving Gun, Caught On Video

While this interaction could’ve gone south fast, fortunately it seems like nobody involved in the incident was hurt. Toosii’s outspoken demeanor and steadfast conviction in the clip fall in line with recent actions, and that’s a good thing. Most recently, he defended the LGBTQIA+ community in a late-night Instagram post. “I get on the internet everyday and see us attacking us,” Toosii tweeted before his IG post. “S**t getting overrated [one-hundred emoji].”

“It is what it is at the end of the day,” he expressed via Instagram. “If being straight [is] not an insult, why is being gay an insult? You’re trying to use calling a person gay as an insult. Them is the motherf***ers that really need to be attacked, feel me?”. Later on, he clarified his own sexuality and said that the comments were lame for attacking him. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on Toosii.

Blueface Claims Police Barred Him From Rolling Loud LA Performance

Blueface took to Twitter to claim police stopped him from performing at Rolling Loud LA this weekend. Moreover, the festival canceled his set prior to his scheduled time for no apparent reason, and he didn’t show up to perform. After the California rapper posted the update to his Twitter feed, he also announced a show in Pomona, California on March 16th. While it’s unclear whether this was scheduled beforehand or in response to his set’s cancellation, it certainly lined up time wise. Still, not much else is known about this situation, so take Blue’s words with a grain of salt.

“Sorry rolling loud they hit my bus police ain’t let us in,” he tweeted Saturday (March 4). Also, after that tweet, he also gave some interesting information on his Cardi B collab for the “Thotiana” remix. “When I got that cardi feature, I never spoke with her prior to the studio session or recording of the music video. Everything was done from management to management to ensure professional business. No money was exchanged for anything because it made cents for everyone no leverage.”

Blueface Claims Police Stopped Him From Performing At Rolling Loud

“That feature changed my life fasho that’s the only way we doing business in 2023,” he concluded. Furthermore, his set wasn’t the only one that faced difficulties at this year’s West Coast premier rap festival. For example, Playboi Carti faced an emergency at his show and was almost cut off multiple times. In addition, Travis Scott’s set was inexplicably cut short as he performed “SICKO MODE.” Of course, these delays and scheduling changes are normal for such large-scale festivals, especially ones as wild as Rolling Loud.

Meanwhile, the “Bleed It” rapper and his girlfriend Chrisean Rock recently appeared on Mike Tyson’s Hotboxin’ podcast. Moreover, the boxing legend asked the couple if fighting is how they show their love to one another. Blue said that he only fights when he has to, while Rock said he “plays nice and then he switch.” Even though news surrounding the couple seems unavoidable online, maybe talking about their relationship in more open dialogues will result in a change in what many perceive as a toxic dynamic. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for updates on this story and the latest on Blueface.

Chris Brown Faces U.K. Police Questioning Over Alleged Glass Bottle Assault At Nightclub

U.K. police will reportedly question Chris Brown over an alleged assault he committed against a man in a nightclub. Moreover, the accuser claimed that he was hit over the head with a glass bottle in a brawl. According to The Sun, the man in question went to a hospital following the fight at Tape nightclub in Hanover Square. While they were non-life-threatening injuries, it’s yet another instance of controversial actions from Brown this week after he reportedly mocked disabled people.

“A row broke out with a guy and Brown’s crowd and the man was hit over the head with a bottle,” a witness said of the incident. “He tried to get up off the ground to escape but he was surrounded and then punched and kicked before security broke it up.” Furthermore, local police authorities reviewed CCTV footage and seek a conversation with the R&B star when he returns to England for performances at The O2. Also, the artist recently tossed a fan’s phone at a show recently, adding damning context to these allegations.

In addition, the 33-year-old recently spoke on an altercation he faced at a club. Furthermore, a video surfaced online of Brown getting testy with a stranger in a club. Then, he took to social media to say he was ready to take things further. “You know you tucked your tail,” he wrote, “you was scared to come outside. You would’ve been doing TIK TOKs from a hospital bed. Weird a** n***a.” Of course, these revelations came after Brown’s intense social media rants about people trying to call out his wrongful behavior.

Meanwhile, the singer’s latest collab with Chlöe drew ire on social media due to said history of violence against women. However, the Bailey sister responded to these pushbacks on Creed III‘s red carpet. “I just want the music and art to speak for itself,” she expressed. “I’m excited for In Pieces, dropping March 31, and I have very exciting news dropping tomorrow. So, I can’t wait to let my fans know.” Regardless of your take on that, stick around on HNHH for the latest on Chris Brown.
