How does Rick Ross escape a shooting uninjured when he was the target? Well, if you ask 50 Cent, the answer is easy—it was all fake!

The Get Rich or Die Tryin' star took to Twitter shortly after Ricky Rozay's scare to discuss his thoughts on the matter, and seeing how the two have been beefing it since 2009, it wasn't exactly a "Oh my, glad you're OK," message.

"Hahaha fat boy hit the building?lol it looks staged to me. No hole's in da car," 50 tweeted, with a photo of the Teflon Don's car (which had no bullet holes) after his crash.

"hahaha that boy was spooked. I ride like OBAMA level 6 built proof, bomb proof,you already know," he continued. "Nah they shot in the air then he drove into a building...Man they miss the whole f--king car were they do that at ?"

Of course, there's more, silly.

"ok it was just firecrackers but who ever lit them in trouble cause the man damn near had a heart attack," 50 Cent added.

The Maybach Music Group head honcho has yet to speak about the incident that involved an unidentified gunman opened fire on his Rolls-Royce as he was cruising around Ft. Lauderdale early Monday morning, but his camp released the rapper's freestyle to Kendrick Lamar's "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe" later that day. 

And although his verse was likely recorded before the event in Florida took place, Rick Ross raps, "I can't believe I'm alive."

Meanwhile, police released the 911 calls that were received when the shooting took place, and when Rick Ross crashed his Rolls-Royce into a nearby building.

According to the Miami Herald, the manager of the Floridian, a nearby diner that was affected by the shooting, said to the dispatcher, "I just heard a bunch of gunshots go off and a car sped by. Oh my God, they're turning around and coming back. I'm hanging up."

Moments later, a woman called in to report Ross' car crashing into her apartment. "I'm sleeping and I hear this screaming and yelling and a crash," she told the dispatcher. "There's a car at my front door!"

Ft. Lauderdale police were reviewing video surveillance of the scene Tuesday, but released no new details other than the 911 calls. The rapper was accompanied by 28-year-old girlfriend Shateria L. Moragne-el, who was also uninjured.
