4 gunshot victims reported at Lil Wayne's Miami Beach home was a 'swatting' hoax: police

A report of four people shot inside Lil Wayne’s Miami Beach home was all a hoax, authorities said.

The relieving news follows a SWAT team storming the rapper’s luxury La Gorce Island mansion Wednesday afternoon and going from room to room following a tense, two-hour investigation from outside.

“Unfortunately this appears to be a ‘Swatting’ call,” Miami Beach Police tweeted at 2:54 p.m. "MBPD handles all calls of this nature in a serious manner. In this case it appears to have (been) a hoax."

Young Money, the rapper's record label, tweeted that the rapper was not home at the time of the incident and "is okay."

The rapper later echoed that statement, tweeting to his 21.8 million followers, "Prank kall mane."

A SWAT team burst into the waterfront residence around 2:30 p.m. after police said a call placed by a man to a non-emergency line at 12:45 p.m. reported that he had shot four people.

Police Det. Ernesto Rodriguez said attempts to make contact with anyone inside the home failed.

His department previously acknowledged that the entire incident could be a prank.

'Swatting' is a possibility but MBPD does not take chances when responding to these types of calls," the department tweeted.

he call reportedly follows a previous call to the eight-bedroom home in recent days about a man possibly trespassing outside the home that ended without charges.

The mansion was purchased by the rapper, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., in 2010 for $14 million, AOL Real Estate reported.

The property boasts 15,101 square feet of living space, a three-bedroom guesthouse, three-car garage and a swimming pool.
