An actor claims he was ambushed at a Buckhead hotel after a heated exchange with rapper Machine Gun Kelly at a nearby restaurant, Channel 2 Action News reported.
Gabriel G-Rod Rodriguez was at the Twin Peaks restaurant on Piedmont Road Thursday night when he ran into the rapper, known for his ongoing feud with rapper Eminem.
He told Channel 2 hes had an issue with Kelly ever since the rapper called Eminems daughter hot as (expletive) in a tweet when she was just 16 years old.
Rodriguez pulled out his phone to record before giving Kelly a piece of his mind.
As a father, I understand that you guys are beefing, he told the news station. Rappers beef all the time and go back and forth, but as a father I got to tell you, when you bring family into the beef and you speak on children and his wife, its really cowardly.
The manager of the restaurant asked Rodriguez, who most recently appeared in an episode of Chicago P.D., to leave. It wasnt until hours later, when Rodriguez was returning to the Hampton Inn across the street, that he had a violent run-in with members of Kellys crew, he told Atlanta police.
There was another exchange with a group of people on Kellys tour bus.
According to a police report, hotel surveillance footage shows four men chase Rodriguez into the lobby of the hotel.
