Mavado took to social media earlier this week to address the allegedly shooting incident that took place over the weekend.

The ‘Gully Gad’ made rounds on social media after reports emerged that he had to run for his life in his Cassava Piece, St Andrew community.

Mavado reportedly went to the area on Saturday to settle a dispute between his son and another man. The two got into a heated argument and Mavado reportedly punched the man.

The man allegedly left the scene and returned with two men who opened fire at Mavado and his vehicle. The ‘Big League’ deejay ran to the Constant Spring Police Station and filed a report.

In a cryptic post on his official Instagram page, Mavado warned fans to not believe the rumours and blessed up his community of Cassava Piece.

“I’m just saying f–k the rumours,” Mavado wrote. “I wonder how much dem pay dem media friends for all the shit dem a chat, anyway bless up my community cassava piece my people.”

However despite the the entertainer’s post, police have confirmed the shooting incident did take place, and that a suspect is currently in custody. Mavado has since deleted the post.
