Drake’s Toronto mansion sparked more trouble a day after a shooting near the property left his bodyguard seriously injured.
On Wednesday (May 8), TMZ reported that a man was stopped while trying to enter the Bridle Path neighborhood housing complex commonly known as “The Embassy.”
Law enforcement was alerted after the Canadian superstar’s security team blocked the man from entering through the front door, and he then got into a brief altercation with the man who stopped him – who apparently claimed he was “here to see Drake.”
“Police were called after someone attempted to enter the property,” a representative from the Toronto Police Service told XXL. “The individual was arrested under the Mental Health Act.”
The news comes on the heels of a heated argument with Kendrick Lamar over the weekend as part of their ongoing rap feud, despite incidents at his home and the alleged feud The connection has not been confirmed.
A shooting near Liushen’s house earlier this week left one person injured and became the center of a police investigation.
“Rolling Stone” later confirmed that the victim was the “Hotline Bling” singer’s security guard. He was shot in the upper chest and was quickly taken to the hospital for emergency surgery after being found unconscious.
The attacker, who has not yet been identified, is believed to have fled the scene in a vehicle.
A photo circulated on social media of authorities blocking the street outside the property. Other images showed police taping off the rapper’s front door.
The OVO Sound boss himself was not injured in the incident, which is believed to be a drive-by shooting.
The mansion was recently used as fodder for the aforementioned war of words, with the Compton rapper using a satellite photo of it as the cover art for “Not Like Us.”

“Say it, Drake, I hear you like ’em young/You better never go to Cell One/Any bitch he talks to and they love each other/Just make sure you hide your little sister from him,” he Spit. “And Baka [Not Nice] There is a strange case, why is he around? Certified pedophile.
