Tekashi 6ix9ine pistol-whipped, kidnapped and robbed of cash and £550,000 worth of jewellery in front of ex and daughter
The rapper was driving home when hooded thugs blocked in his car at around 4am on Sunday morning
A US rapper was kidnapped, pistol-whipped, and robbed of nearly £600,000 as he returned from shooting a music video in Brooklyn.
Tekashi 6ix9ine, 22, was driving home when hooded thugs blocked in his car at around 4am.
The rainbow-haired rapper - real name Daniel Hernandez - was smacked with a pistol before being told he'd be shot if he failed to hand over cash and jewellery.
They drove him to his house to seaerch it for valuables - ransacking it in front of his ex-girlfriend and their daughter.
Two of the kidnappers looted his house, making off with £570,000 in jewellery and up to £15,000 in cash, while the third guarded him in the car, TMZ reported.
The woman and child were reportedly not harmed.

The stranger called 911 - then promptly ask the roughed-up rapper to get out of the car.
Tekashi was taken by ambulance to a hospital, where he is currently undergoing tests including a CT scan.
