Pooh Shiesty Charged In Miami Strip Club Shooting
Pooh Shiesty (born name Lontrell Williams) has been charged with aggravated battery in connection to a May 30 shooting at the King of Diamonds strip club. The “Twerksum” hitmaker had performed at the club that night and was reportedly robbed of $40,000 before the gunfire. He turned himself in to police.
Williams, as he was being led out of the club again, took out the gun and fired one shot — hitting the guard in the ankle, according to the warrant by Miami-Dade Detective Daniel Soto.
The guard told police that when he saw the rapper taking the gun out, his jumping out of the way “saved him from being shot in the torso.” Williams fled the club with his entourage in a Cadillac Escalade, police said. (Miami Herald)
Already Facing Charges From 2020 Shooting
In Dec. 2020, Pooh Shiesty was arrested in connection to another shooting in Bay Harbor Islands, Fla. That incident, in which two men were shot, reportedly stemmed from a trade gone wrong involving a McClaren car, marijuana and some Jordans.
In that case, he’s charged with armed robbery, aggravated battery with a weapon, aggravated assault with a firearm and petty theft. He’s pleaded not guilty, and had been out on bond since his March.

On a positive note, the 1017 Records signee recently showed love to his Day One. He surprised his mother by buying her a new house.

New House Comes After Tragedy
The new house sadly comes just after tragedy. Pooh Shiesty let his late brother know what he had done in his caption. Tarrance Henderson died on February 28th after a long battle with cancer and he was remembered on Instagram by his mom.
