—————
Fetty Wap had quite the start to his weekend!
The rapper, who celebrated the release of his self-titled debut album just one day ago, found himself injured after being involved in a motorcycle accident near his hometown of Paterson, New Jersey Saturday morning.
Paterson Police tell E! News that the 25-year-old entertainer was said to be in stable condition at St. Joseph's Regional Medical Center where he was being treated for undisclosed injuries after his motorcycle collided with a car. He was thrown/ejected from his motorcycle but was still able to communicate with people at the scene.
While Wap's injuries are not considered life-threatening, police said he was ticketed for unlicensed and uninsured operation of a vehicle and with failure to produce a vehicle registration. E! News has reached out to the rapper's rep for comment.
In pictures obtained by TMZ, who first broke the news, the "Trap Queen" crooner appeared to have a cast on his left arm and leg while getting assistance from doctors.
As soon as the news broke, #PrayersforFetty began to trend on social media as fans shared their well wishes to the performer all day long.
Luckily, DJ Louie Styles was able to calm some fears when he shared an update on his close friend. "God bless, he's ok," the DJ tweeted. "Wap is Gucci everybody thank you for your prayers #Amen."
We're wishing the rapper a quick and speedy recovery.
