The manager of Florida rapper NewAge Jerkboy has confirmed the 29-year-old artist’s passing during a call-in to the "Tippie Toe Podcast."
According to the manager, the incident began when police responded to reports of a shooting involving the rapper. While the details remain unclear, the manager alleges that NewAge Jerkboy was not only targeted in the shooting but was also allegedly beaten by responding officers.
He further claims that police deployed dogs during the encounter, resulting in a severe bite wound to the rapper’s thigh. The manager alleges that officers failed to provide immediate medical attention for the injury, leading to an infection that ultimately caused organ failure.
At this time, official details surrounding the incident remain limited as investigators work to piece together what occurred.
