An investigation is underway in connection with Tory Lanez’s prison stabbing — and the district attorney is on the case, The Post can confirm.
A representative from California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) told The Post exclusively that “an investigation has been initiated by CCI’s Investigative Services Unit and the Kern County District Attorney’s Office. The Office of the Inspector General has been notified” about the incident.
The rapper, 32, real name Daystar Peterson, was stabbed on Monday morning by another inmate at the California Correctional Institution (CCI) in Tehachapi, where Lanez is serving 10 years after being convicted of shooting Megan Thee Stallion in 2020.
“At approximately 7:20 a.m. today, Daystar Peterson (BW0168) was attacked by another inmate at a housing unit in the California Correctional Institution (CCI) in Tehachapi. Staff immediately responded, activated 911 and began medical aid. Peterson was subsequently transported to an outside medical facility for further treatment,” the CDCR spokesperson confirmed to The Post.
The representative also handed out Lanez’s mugshot, taken all the way back in October 2023, which he said is the “latest photograph” of the rapper.
Lanez was taken to a nearby hospital via ambulance and treated for non-life-threatening injuries, according to TMZ, which first broke the story.
