Kash Doll has called out an Atlanta-area man for reportedly telling local news that she runs a “drug house” after she was the victim of a home invasion.
In a video posted to her Instagram story and picked up by multiple outlets on Saturday (August 17), the Detroit native details the scary moment when her partner Tracy T, with whom she shares two young children, scared off would-be robbers who attempted to break into her home in the posh Atlanta neighborhood of Brookhaven.

“I normally don’t put the internet in my business because I just feel like you share certain things and you keep certain things to yourself, right? But I’ve been violated bad since I in Detroit,” Kash Doll starts. “I guess people was looking at my story and they see that I’m not home. And they found that this was the best opportunity to run inside of my house and get all my Birkin bags in Atlanta. However, that’s cool; they got caught.
“They got into a shootout with my child’s father. And the police got all of them. Yeah, we ain’t took no L. So it’s a celebration, but it’s also sad that it’s Black people that’s just running inside of people’s homes and tryna take their things. And what if my kids were there? What if my sister was there? What if my mom was there? What if Tracy was sleep and y’all caught him slippin’? They came in with guns!”

However, as she continues, the 32-year-old breaks down the additional injustice that prompted her to speak about the incident publicly.
“I’m putting y’all in my business today,” she continued, “because I’m so upset that Ronnie Mayers, the community leader over in Brookhaven and the block that I stay in because, you guys I stay in a nice neighborhood. Where I’m the only Black person on my block, and the youngest person on my block. And this man had the audacity […] he went to the news and told them that my house is a drug house.”

She went on: “Because it’s traffic and a lot of Black people there. Because it’s always traffic, he just assumed that since it’s nice cars and other Black nice successful people that’s pulling up, that’s entertainers, that’s friends, that’s producers that have nice things as well. And it’s a lot of traffic ’cause I have two kids under two, that I have drugs in my home?
“The sacrifices I make, how hard I work, everything that I do; for you to just associate me with drugs, just because I’m young, Black and successful. That’s crazy! That you went to the internet, no, you went to the news my n-gga and told the news that me and my child’s father is running a drug house.”

According to Rough Draft Atlanta, a man named Ronnie Mayer — whose photos match a later image shared by Kash Doll — is known to others in the community as “the unofficial mayor of Brookhaven.”
Multiple local news outlets reported on the attempted home invasion at Kash Doll’s house, which took place late on Thursday evening (August 15).

According a statement provided to these outlets by the Georgia Bureau of Investigations the homeowner, simply identified as a woman, saw four armed men inside of her home thanks to surveillance cameras. She told officials that she contacted “a friend,” later identified as Tracy T, who headed to the house and confronted the intruders.
There was a brief shootout, after which the suspects fled the scene in a Lexus. The vehicle was spotted by a Brookhaven police officer who was responding to the crime scene, which led to a police chase.
The vehicle eventually crashed in the neighboring city of Chamblee, at which point all four suspects jumped out. One of the men, 19-year-old Albert Eugene Burns, was shot by police officers.
He was later apprehended and rushed to the hospital. Two other suspects, 22-year-old Davion Harper and 18-year-old Tyson Kamari Kirksey, were also taken into custody; while an unnamed fourth man remains at large.

Neither Atlanta’s local newspaper, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, nor the TV news reports from Fox 5 News, Atlanta News First or WSB-TV included a statement from Ronnie Mayer.
As of this writing, HipHopDX has been unable to locate any other public statement by the man.
