Method Man, the well-known rapper and actor, has been charged with assaulting his daughter's ex-boyfriend at a Crunch Fitness facility in Staten Island, New York. The altercation apparently happened after the two got into a discussion that led to claims of physical abuse. Even though there are still few specifics available about the incident, the accusation has drawn attention, leaving media outlets and fans interested in what actually happened.
According to witnesses, the 53-year-old artist, whose actual name is Clifford Smith, punched a man, named Patrick Sokoya in the face seven times "with a closed fist." The fight is said to have begun because of a previous relationship between 28-year-old Patrick and Method's daughter, Cheyenne.
Sources claim that despite experiencing facial pain and vertigo, Patrick Soyoka chose not to seek medical attention right soon. However, according to the reports, even after filing a complaint about Method Man with the NYPD, he was not taken into custody.
As soon as the news was out, fans immediately expressed their feelings on social media, which was inundated with responses. Some others expressed surprise and disbelief, while others couldn't resist making amusing comments and memes for the occasion. The diverse range of comments not only kept the story alive but also increased its appeal as the online buzz turned into a show unto itself.
