‘Banged Up’ In Atlanta Car Crash
Published
Rapper Boosie Badazz says he was “banged up” in a serious car collision in the Atlanta area on Monday.
Video taken by a passerby shows the aftermath — a lime green and black BMW the rapper was riding in is stopped at an intersection on the South Fulton Parkway in Union City, GA. Victims appear to be in agonizing pain, lying on the ground waiting to be helped by emergency responders. (The tweet incorrectly says it happened in Memphis.)

The BMW appears to have been hit head-on, as the video shows debris strewn across the pavement near the front of it. The video also shows the airbags deployed.
The Union City Police Dept. tells TMZ … shortly after 3:30 PM Monday, two cars collided at the intersection of South Fulton and Mason Road … and we’re told multiple people were hospitalized. Police said Boosie is not listed on the police report, meaning he was not the driver in the incident.
Unlike the other passengers, Boosie made it out alright. He’s seen in the video speaking to an officer — albeit hunched over with no shirt on. He later confirmed on Facebook he’ll be just fine.
Reports claimed the “Set It Off” hitmaker ran a red light, causing the accident … but police confirmed he was not the driver. TMZ reached out to his rep for comment, but so far no word back.
Reporter Loren Lorosa says she spoke to his team, who claim he was in the passenger seat at the time of the crash and later went to the hospital to check on the driver. She said the car doesn’t belong to Boosie.

Boosie — who rapped for officers when he was pulled over in 2022 — is currently on his “Millennium” tour 2025, with his next stop being in Charlotte, N.C. on Thursday.
His tour has been riddled with hiccups … including legal warnings from Louisiana’s attorney general over his desire to create a scholarship for hazing victim Caleb Wilson.
For now… it looks like Boosie will have the green light to carry on with his next show.

2 arrested in deadly drive-by shooting of 7-year-old Atlanta girl, police say
Two suspects in a shooting that left a 7-year-old Atlanta girl dead and her mother injured are now in custody nearly a week after the violence, police say.
The shooting happened around 9:45 p.m. on Feb. 24 at a home on the 2200 block of Tiger Flowers Drive NW.
Investigators believe the shooting stemmed from a dispute between one of the victim’s family members and the gunman over the phone. Thirty minutes after the argument, the suspect came back and fired shots into the home, police said.
Officers responding to the scene found a 44-year-old woman and her daughter, identified as 7-year-old Zoe Price, shot. Medics rushed the pair to a local hospital, but Price died from her injuries.
Atlanta Police Chief Darin Schierbaum said the department’s homicide unit secured an arrest warrant for 19-year-old Preston Smith two days after the shooting. Smith turned himself in to the Fulton County Jail on March 2.
Schierbaum said officers executed a search warrant on Feb. 27 at a home on McDaniel Street. On that day, 17-year-old Steven Richardson, who police described as an “accomplice,” turned himself in to authorities.
Both men are charged with murder, criminal attempt to commit murder, three counts of aggravated assault, second-degree criminal damage to property, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, and four counts of third-degree cruelty to children. Richardson is also charged with possession of a Firearm by a Person Under 18.
At a press conference to announce the arrests, Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens described Price as a bright and compassionate little girl who was “full of energy and full of joy.”
“Her life was cut short in an act of senseless violence, and that loss is not abstract. It is a chair that is going to be missing at the dinner table each night. It is an empty classroom seat next to her friends,” Dickens said.
The mayor called the arrests “a step forward towards justice” for Price’s family and families across the city.
Dickens said that violence, like the act that took Price’s life, would not be tolerated in Atlanta.

Atlanta Braves News: Top 30 Prospects, Starting Pitching Depth, More
On Monday, the Braves were able to earn another Spring Training victory over the Detroit Tigers. It was a game where the starting pitching depth of the Braves was on full display, as Bryce Elder, Joey Wentz, and Owen Murphy all threw multiple innings. While it is likely unwise to expect big things from any of these three arms this season, they are a part of the “next man up” group for the Braves if injury again impacts the rotation. Each had a solid effort today, a trend that will hopefully continue.
