Philadelphia, Pennsylvania rapper Beanie Sigel has reportedly been shot in the torso while in Pleasantville, New Jersey. The Press Of Atlantic City reports that Sigel was taken to the Trauma Unit at AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center to undergo surgery Friday (December 5) morning.
NJ.com reports that Pleasantville police Chief Jose Ruiz revealed that Sigel is currently in “serious” condition.
“All I can confirm at this time is that Mr. Dwight Grant was shot this morning after an altercation on Spruce Avenue,” said Chief Jose Ruiz, according to NJ.com.
Another man was injured during the incident and a third, assumed to be involved in the shooting, was taken into custody following a police chase.
Today’s shooting comes months after Sigel was released from prison after serving time on tax and drug charges. The rapper served roughly two years in prison and was sent to a Philadelphia halfway house following his release.
Philly.com previously reported that Sigel was to remain in the halfway house until December 6, according to the Bureau of Prisons.
Video footage The Press Of Atlantic City obtained from the scene of the shooting and photos from the scene can be found below.

oh…not surprised
This is good. A rapper needs to get shot or go to jail, because that gives them street cred. Always a plus. When you rap about living that life, you really gotta live that life.
Beans one of the last rappers who would ever need some street cred. He just finished a 2 year bid no?
lmao. tell that to rappers like drake mac miller and tyga who got no street cred
tell that to rick ross LOL. mac miller drake and cole all got more street cred than him. they got longer rap sheets too and they’re half his age.
I hope he pulls through. This is the second time Beans been shot. The streets are uuuggglllyyy. Tis the season. smh
many sads
FUUUUUUCK!!!!I had 13 december on my coupon!!I want my mooooney back!!Why did i take tip-offs from crips and bloods when they have no insight in this game?!?
man what the fuck is this dude doing?
all the good rappers get shot or killed why dudes like Ross, gunplay ,and that gay boy Young thug can’t get hit it would be great for hiphop
and let’s not forget do Khaled and please don’t forget his we the best punk ass get him first
lets go to the suburbs and shoot all the G-Unit wiggers
feelings were caught. it must suck being a fan of fraud niggas and no talent hacks
I got to be a idiot!!! How you gonna wish that on somebody. Nobody want to get shot…. Its unfortunate beanie got hit again, but be careful what you wish for. Cuz you wouldn’t want that to happen to you or your family.
i’m into lyricism as well, i prefer guys like nas, reasonable doubt jay z, redman, cormega, tragedy khadafi, AZ but out of all these new age rappers, gunplay isn’t that bad, compared to guys like two chains, trinidad james, migos etc etc,
Who?me?Just sayin i put down alot of money on sigel gettin shot 13dec and im devasted to say i lost mucho dinero on that.Many will probably say HOW could you have missed that?!?Its a safe bet!!And its a sure thing!!!But there`s many factors to think about in this rapgame when youre about to make a bet.As you can see from the picture it looks as if the weather is a little grey and cold so people probably gonna be a little moody and thats when the bullets potentially could start flying.You can also notice he had sweatpants on so that could mean he was maybe givin a little fuck that day,and people probably werent takin it kindly,but thats life.On to the next one.USABETTING offers huge odds on a legshot on gunplay from 10-20 dec so im a little bit tempted.You guys got any inside knowledge on that?
Yo you need to quit betting on this shit and cop some Israel Bonds, much better chance… Not close enough to gunplays album release for Ross to shoot him in the leg and drum up publicity in my opinion
It would be easier to put the gun in your mouth and squeeze the trigger, nobody will miss you except for pet insects and your stuffed animals.
WOWWOWWOW HOLD YOUR HORSES THERE FRANKY!!Have some respect for for us bettingchamps!We live life on the line here my g!House,boats,cabins,cars could get lost and we have to live lookin over our shoulders!Try being positive and do something useful like givin me tips about how many days u think beanie
s gonna lay in the hospital or if he`s gonna survive!If you look closely on the picture it could look like his unconscious and that could mean hes in a critical condition,but the odds on him droppin dead in the hospital is probably very good.Thinking its worth a punt!Is it a smart bet you think?I hope he makes it through….Getting shot in the stomach is a hard thing to make it out of.
i didnt know this nigga was even out…
beans been out the closet since he tried to bung peedis ass crack on that youtube vid he like in rape a man lean mode that lean is one hell of a drug shit it makes beans fuck a nigga suppose drugs bring out the fruit in a nigga cause now im thinking about it wasn’t that nigga ja rule fucking his make up guy when he was high on xtasy I guess all niggaz are gay when they drunk or on drugs which is basically all the time nigga you
Oh my God! Was he shot by the police? Was he shot by white police? Should I be outraged?
No? No, it wasn’t police? It wasn’t white police? Just shot by a brother? Whew, thank God. I was almost outraged there for a moment. Free Gucci!
Kill yo self bitch
funny, but had a valid point
I wonder what percentage is of black men shooting other black men vs. police shooting black men
eat a fat dick negro
Beanie Sigel the Realest
Wish all the best :/
Bum …. and that’s why he has nothing, cause he needs to be a hood dude to fufill his ego. I have no sympathy for this clown. Let this be a lesson to the idiots on here that want to follow in this guy’s foot steps.
who said anything about fulfilling an ego? maybe he got people in the hood

I’d pay attention to you guys but you’ve done nothing in your lives to affect anyone and the way you’re addressing someone getting shot with racial slurs, and slights on American issues just let’s me know y’aLL are a bunch of feeble minded children
TOTALLY AGREE!!ABOUT TIME SOMEONE SPEAKS UP AGAINST THESE INTERNETASSHOLES!!On another note,when do you think this fatass gonna drop dead?In the hospital?Or in a new exiting gunfight when he recovers?The thing is that im not so sure about him dropping dead anytime soon…If he recovers he could have very good time to train on the shooting range and to build up his stamina,reactiontime and mobility so he endures under whatever the conditions might be during the new gunfight thats comin up next fall.Can you help me with a thoroughly judgment?Were thinkin about fixin my roof so i most def need the money!!
Hang in there Beans, Any negative comments from these internet cowards is just foolish behavior of fools !
DAAAAAAMN RIGHT MY G !!PREACH IT PREACH IT!! None of us want to see this guy dead and i mean NONE OF US!!Atleast not before we all made ur betts in on the next uzifight comin up!! GET THE POPCORNS READY MY G`S!!

My spidey-sense was malfuctioning
