DaBaby Claims Woman Who Came Forward as Slap Victim Is Not Person He Hit
DaBaby is shooting down a woman's claim that he actually hit her. DaBaby slapped her despite not being the person who initially hit him in the left eye with a smartphone while he was making his way through a concert venue in Tampa, Fla., earlier this week. Laws said the alleged slap landed her in the hospital with a "concussion to my cheekbone." However, DaBaby's attorney, Drew Findling, claims that Laws is not the actual slap victim. DaBaby's lawyer contends that the enhanced video shows the Kirk rapper slapping a person who struck him with a phone with the flashlight on and not the person standing to the left or the right of the alleged victim. Laws claims she was standing next to the person who was holding the smartphone with the flashlight on. Hopefully, DaBaby can rectify this unfortunate situation
