Tekashi 6ix9ine was charged with assaulting a police officer on Monday (May 21), but the controversial rapper has denied the allegations in an Instagram video posted on Tuesday afternoon (May 22).
“For all them stories, niggas not touch no police, man,” he said. “Them niggas is fucking corrupt. Them niggas beat the shit out of me. That’s just regular shit … regular shit that happen in Brooklyn every single day bro. Corrupt-ass cops.”
The NYPD told HipHopDX that 6ix9ine caused “pain and swelling” by squeezing and twisting the hands of an officer who was removing his handcuffs. The rainbow color-haired artist refuted this story.
“How the fuck I squeeze ya hand, how the fuck I pulled ya arm out ya socket if I’m in handcuffs?” he said. “But you know, everybody gonna wanna tell a story of clickbait. TMZ, everybody wants to cover ‘Tekashi assaults a cop.’ No the fuck I did not.”

Tekashi 6ix9ine was charged with assault on Monday (May 21) after allegedly grabbing and squeezing the hand of a police officer while he was in custody for driving with a suspended license.
HipHopDX has confirmed with the NYPD that police approached 6ix9ine’s vehicle on Sunday (May 20) because he was parked in front of a fire hydrant. After officers ran his name through the system, they discovered he had a suspended license. NYPD said he was charged with aggravated unlicensed operation.
Page Six and Spectrum News NY1’s Myles Miller reported additional charges were imposed against 6ix9ine after an incident at the 77th Precinct station house.
“While a Lieutenant was removing handcuffs from [6ix9ine] who was in police custody, [he] grabbed the Lieutenant by the hand, squeezing and twisting his hands causing pain and swelling,” a NYPD spokesperson told DX.
DX confirmed 6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, has been charged with assault on a police officer.
6ix9ine has been mired by legal woes since pleading guilty to use of a child in a sexual performance in 2015. Last month, his next court date in the case was postponed.
More recently, a warrant for misdemeanor assault was reportedly issued in Texas following an incident in which the controversial artist allegedly choked a fan at The Galleria in Houston.

Any “cop” who cries about getting his hand squeezed is a BITCH
True story, but they will be the first ones to bend your ear in the bar about how tough they are.
But why put yourself in that situation? Just act like a normal human being and guess what??? None of this shit will happen. That goes to everybody as well.
Tell your mom we said thanks for the pointer.
Signed….
White boy too!
I guess being a pedo wasnt enough to lock him up. Maybe he will get locked up for this one- they should add “being a fucking embarrassment to real rap” to the list of charges. Hes def guilty as fuck.
Say what you want about sixnine I won’t argue, but these police officers who tout themselves as so called tough guys sure love to fabricate/overexagerate injuries any chance they get. Not only to pile up the charges but also so they can milk some paid time off. Reminds me if when Paul Pierce and Dwayne Wade had shoulder injuries but needed to be rolled off the court in wheelchairs. LOL. U tough right? Obviously not.
as stupid as this guy looks, i seriously doubt he “assaulted a police officer”.
Assault of an Police officer = “He squeezed the Wrist of the Officer”. Yo thats Gangsta.
I get that this is stupid ass hell and a BS additional charge, but does it really surprise you that Tekashi would do something this stupid in a police station? Nah. He just doesn’t know when to shut up and stop.
I’m starting to believe EVERY rapper has either a suspended license/ no license and no insurance. Police officer is going to milk the hell out of this waiting for the #BlueLivesMatter faction to come out and a lawsuit LOL
You got to be one seriously pussy cop to get assaulted a 4 foot tall fruitcake
Bs charge r not, those situations are gonna happen when u rep gang life. Get your life together kid and focus on your music
He was merely trying to force the cop into giving him a handjob.
Who is this? Why does HHDX keep posting about this person?
They been promoting this pedo. They seem to have weekly articles on this freak. Undoubtedly, hhdx doesn’t have issues with molesting kids.
Ni***s iffy, uh, Blicky got the stiffy, uh!
BESt news all day. Hopefully the judge in his case will see this and violate him. Then he will serve a few years for being a child molester in the Pena. That rainbow hair will do humble wonders. We can only pray for the justice system to work this one time…
God willing. Fuck this pedophile fuck and anyone sticking up for him or promoting and paying him. Includes this site that feels the need to write about him on a weekly basis.
Why on earth do we have to hear and see this trash zero amount of talent and a child molester time to stop giving this rainbow clown any pub
The shame of this situation is the kid doesn’t understand that due to all of the foolishness he is known for and has already done, not one person who read the story of him attacking the cop would think “nah, he’s not that stupid” or “he wouldn’t do something like that”.
His whole public persona revolves around his recklessness. Of course people are going to believe the police over him.
Seems kinda fishy that someone police custody would assault a police officer in the police station. Still got the same question as 69, how he squeeze his hand when he was in cuffs??? Police assault citizens all the time but this cop supposedly gets his hand squeezed and twisted and someone is charged. BS. Tekashi is not the worse thing to happen to hip-hop and sometimes we gotta support our own no matter how you feel IF they were wronged. Next time that will be you… AND wtf do all NY rappers have suspended licenses or plates? Better yet, why don’t they just pay their fines and keep it movin?
You put a Target on your back by claiming yr a super gangster. Hip-hop police will get u by any means now. Like a prize catch
