A Toronto-based social media personality known as Top5 suffered a stabbing attack while meeting supporters near London's Wireless Festival venue. The incident occurred following Drake's performance during the artist's three-day festival residency. A masked assailant approached the rapper as he conversed with fans close to the main stage area. The attack left Top5 wounded but alive, with medical sources confirming that major blood vessels remained unharmed during the assault. Keep6ixSolid, a Toronto news outlet, first reported details of the confrontation.
Hours before the stabbing, Top5 had broadcast a livestream where he declared that London lacked dangerous individuals, according to The Express Tribune. Social media footage captured by The Sun appeared to document a separate car ambush where multiple attackers damaged the vehicle and assaulted the occupant through the windows. Metropolitan Police officers responded to Springpark Drive shortly after midnight Monday following reports of the violence. A department spokesperson confirmed that several individuals approached the victim, damaged his automobile, and stabbed his leg before fleeing the scene.
Medical personnel transported Top5 to a local hospital, where doctors determined his injuries would not cause permanent damage. The rapper gained freedom from prison last year when a judge dismissed social media evidence in a murder case. He continues facing separate firearms-related criminal charges despite his recent legal victory.
