Drake’s team are working with authorities as they continue their investigation after a security guard working for the rap star was shot outside the gates of his Toronto mansion early Tuesday, Radar reports.
The security guard remains in serious condition after being rushed to the hospital with an apparent gunshot wound, police said after being called around 2 AM to the intersection of Lawrence and Bayview Avenue near the upscale Bridle Path neighborhood.
Inspector Paul Krawczyk of the Integrated Gun and Gang Task Force said the suspects were seen fleeing the scene in a vehicle during a press conference on Tuesday, but he did not share the number of how many individuals are believed to have been involved.
Krawczyk could not confirm if Drake, whose real name is Aubrey Graham, was home when the incident occurred.
“I can say that we’ve already collected some video evidence which captures the incident,” he revealed, noting there are some quality issues making it more time-consuming to review.

Krawczyk went on to share that the footage is still being analyzed.
A motive is unclear and it’s unknown if the security guard was the intended target, but Krawczyk said more details will be shared down the line. He also noted there would be an increased police presence in the neighborhood as authorities gather information.
While taking questions from reporters, Krawczyk would not comment on whether the rap feud with Kendrick Lamar was a factor in the investigation by Toronto police.
