Method Man was reportedly involved in an altercation in a New York gym where he allegedly punched a man seven times in the face.

Authorities Respond to Altercation Involving Method Man

On Thursday (Jan. 16), the New York Post broke the news that Tical was involved in a fight at a Crunch Fitness gym in Staten Island, N.Y.  According to the publication, the Wu-Tang Clan member was seen punching a 28-year-old man seven times in the face. The victim is reportedly a former boyfriend of Meth's daughter.

Authorities responded to the incident where a man complained of facial pain and dizziness. Despite his condition, he declined any medical help. Although no arrest was made for the altercation, a formal complaint has been submitted concerning the event. The exact cause of the confrontation remains uncertain.

Method Man's daughter, Cheyenne, p.k.a. Chey, is a budding hip-hop artist who broke out into the game last year. She released the singles "Hair & Nails" and "Boujee & Ghetto" last February followed by the track "Walk" last September.

The fight seems out of character for the rapper, who is currently up for a NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Supporting Role in a Drama Series for his role in Power Book II: Ghost, which wrapped back in August.

XXL has reached out to the New York City Police Department and Method Man for comment.
