Nicki Minaj Targeted in Swatting Hoax Again

Nicki Minaj was the target of a swatting call on Wednesday night, prompting a response from Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies to her Hidden Hills residence. The caller falsely reported an assault involving a shooting at the rapper's home. Upon arrival, deputies found no evidence of a crime, confirming it as a swatting incident. This is not the first time Minaj has faced such calls, with previous incidents occurring in 2023 involving false claims of child abuse and shootings. Swatting, a growing issue in Southern California, involves fake emergency calls to elicit a large law enforcement response. Minaj and her family were reportedly not at home at the time of the incident.
