12:23 PM PT — 50 Cent‘s attorney, Scott Leemon, tells TMZ … “Let’s be very clear, as I told LAPD this afternoon, my client Curtis (AKA 50 Cent) would never intentionally strike anyone with a microphone. Anyone saying something different doesn’t have all the facts and is misinformed.”
8:00 AM PT — TMZ has learned … 50 Cent is now a suspect in a criminal felony battery report. Power 106 radio host, Bryhana Monegain, was the woman hit and she filed a police report Wednesday night. Law enforcement sources tell us … they believe 50 threw the mic at his crew in the production area and hit the victim. The victim told cops 50 looked directly at her before throwing the mic, so at least, according to her, 50 knew she was there. Bryhana went to the hospital with a laceration on her head.
50 Cent went all Cardi B during his concert in Los Angeles, throwing his broken microphone in frustration into the crowd … hitting a fan smack dab on the head.
The rapper hit the stage at Crypto.com Arena Wednesday night as part of his “Final Lap” tour 2023 … and, during the performance, he was handed several mics that didn’t work, which was clearly triggering.
Check out the video … Fitty struts out onstage with a mic in hand to join YG, who is belting out a song. Suddenly, Fitty turns to one side of the stage and hurls the mic, striking a woman in the head.
Sources who were present tell TMZ … Fitty wasn’t targeting the woman, but still, he beaned her good. A source connected to 50 says the woman wasn’t supposed to be in the restricted area … but unlike the mic, that argument doesn’t fly.
Photos of the victim surfaced on Instagram, showing a gash in her forehead and bloody towels wrapped around her neck.
We’ve reached out to Fitty’s camp … so far, no word back.
You may recall … Cardi B was involved in a similar incident in which she angrily tossed her mic at a fan, who threw a drink at her during a Las Vegas show. The mic ricocheted off something and hit another person standing nearby. That person filed a police report, but Cardi was cleared.
