Rygin King Transferred To Another Hospital, Dancehall Artiste Under Heavy Security

Dancehall star Rygin King is being transferred to another undisclosed medical facility.

Speaking on the reason for the Tuff deejay’s fourth transfer, sources revealed that he no longer requires 24-hour care from doctors. Rygin King however is being monitored by a heavy security detai.

The Montego Bay-based artiste is, “doing very well,” the source added while thanking the great doctors who worked around the clock to ensure he was healing well.

Rygin King real name Matthew Smith, was shot and injured on Sunday, June 28 after leaving a funeral in Westmoreland.

Reports are that he was travelling in a convoy in Bethel Town when one of the cars was involved in a collision. While repairs were being done another car drove up and a passenger alighted and peppered the bystanders with bullets, including the deejay.

A woman, 28-year-old, Sashalee Blackwood was shot and killed in the incident, while another recording artiste, Goon, was shot in his foot.

The 25-year-old recording artiste was originally admitted to the Savanna-la-Mar Public General Hospital before being airlifted to the Falmouth Hospital a few days later.

He was then airlifted to another location after a group of men showed up at the hospital and attempted to gain access to his room.
