Offset in Hot Water Over L.A. Dispensary Clash!

Offset is facing a new lawsuit alleging that he physically assaulted a security guard during an altercation at a Los Angeles cannabis dispensary earlier this year. The complaint, filed Oct. 29 in Los Angeles County Superior Court, claims the Migos rapper struck a guard in the face without provocation outside the MedMen dispensary near LAX Airport last March.

The plaintiff, Jim Leobardo Sanchez, alleges he was performing routine security duties when he asked the rapper, whose legal name is Kiari Kendrell Cephus, for identification prior to entry. According to the lawsuit, Offset "became hostile, verbally confrontational, and physically attacked [Sanchez] by striking him in the face." The filing further claims that "several unidentified individuals accompanying defendant Cephus" joined in the altercation, pushing and assaulting Sanchez during the incident.

The complaint states that Sanchez suffered immediate injuries that caused "severe pain," including head and neck trauma. Paramedics treated him at the scene before transporting him by ambulance to a nearby hospital. He claims he continues to experience "persistent headaches, neck pain, and related symptoms" months after the alleged attack involving Offset.

"Plaintiff suffered physical injuries, emotional distress, incurred medical expenses, suffered lost income, and continues to experience pain and discomfort," the filing reads. Sanchez is seeking compensatory and punitive damages, with the total amount to be determined at trial against Offset.
