Law enforcement sources confirmed to TMZ on Sunday morning that Lucki was struck in the side of the face around 4:40 PM Saturday while surrounded by fans in the ComplexCon parking lot, suffering a laceration to his face and neck.

No arrests have been made and the number of suspects is unknown. Lucki told a concerned fan via Instagram DM that he is "good" and reposted an Instagram Story around 4 AM Sunday.

Videos circulating on social media show the rapper with blood around his face and neck as associates helped him into a car. AllHipHop reported that its own correspondent witnessed the alleged attack.
