One day after releasing his debut album, rapper Fetty Wap was involved in a serious motorcycle accident in his hometown of Paterson, New Jersey. Fetty was rushed to a local hospital where he was treated for his injuries and is reportedly in stable condition.
Numerous photos of the frightening accident surfaced on Twitter, and in some of them you can see Fetty Wap lying on the ground before being placed on a stretcher and moved to an ambulance:

A video has surfaced of an officer interviewing a young boy on the scene who says Fetty crashed and then “he flew over that car over there.” Here’s the clip:

Thankfully, as we mentioned, Fetty Wap appears to be OK. According to several sources, he is responsive and alert, and doctors are running tests to look for possible fractures. In the photo at the top of this post you can see Fetty Wap at the hospital, sitting up with a splint on his left leg.
Unfortunately, it appears as though the photo was taken by an EMT who has already been fired because of the snap! That information comes from Twitter user @JustBlaze, who has been tweeting updates on Fetty all day. “My fam picked up Fetty at the scene and got him treatment,” he revealed earlier. “He’s good. Other guy is in worse shape.” As far as the photo of Fetty from the hospital, he wrote, “EMT who took pics with Fetty in the ER has just been fired. HIPPA rule violation. Be careful when fanning out folks!”
Fetty Wap’s new album is self-titled and is currently available for purchase.
