Lil Durk’s son may have found himself in hot water after a recent incident went viral on social media. A security footage clip surfaced, showing a heated altercation between the 10-year-old’s mother and his stepfather, Joshua Pippens. In the footage, the two adults appear to be in a physical dispute while others try to diffuse the situation.
Moments later, Durk’s son allegedly fired a gunshot that hit his stepfather in an attempt to protect his mother and end the fight. As of now, the details surrounding the disturbing clip remain unclear, but Pippens has since taken to social media to address the situation.
“As y’all can see, I was not the aggressor, and y’all also can see how I still had my gun on my hip. He grabbed my gun off my hip following his mom’s lead and tried to shoot me, and then actually shot me. I advise y’all to see it before they take it down #buildawareness,” Pippens captioned the clip.
Pippens also spoke about the incident on his Instagram Story. “Whatever makes y’all feel better,” he wrote. “That’s why I got custody of my kids and she doesn’t. Y’all so internet. Thank God it was me that took the shot and not her. That’s still my daughters’ mom, but she knows like I know. GOD HAS ALWAYS BEEN GOOD TO ME. SURVIVOR,” he added.
He further hinted that the dispute was over custody rights regarding their daughter. “Listen, nobody is going to jail or they would already be there. I’m doing this for rights over my kids. Call me what y’all want. And on top of that, this was at my momma’s, in front of my momma, granny, and more kids. I pray y’all make it through y’all situation that God gon’ put y’all through for playing with me,” he added.
Lil Durk has not released a statement or spoken publicly about the situation.
