Claim That Charleston White Was Shot in Texas Debunked as Online Hoax

Fact-checks call the reports false following White’s video placing him in Miami.

Overview

  • The rumor originated from the X account @TommyGoBraazy, alleging the 48-year-old was in critical condition after being shot three times in Texas.
  • The post was widely reshared across X and Facebook, with some users incorrectly declaring White dead.
  • Rapper Nikeboy Zeke shared a screenshot of a chat with White’s friend and manager, who said the claim was untrue and that White had not been in Texas for nearly a week.
  • White denied the story in a livestream and had posted a same-day video from Miami that showed him healthy.
  • Hindustan Times, Times Now, and other outlets reported the incident as a hoax, and no verified police or hospital confirmations support the shooting claim.
