According to TMZ, someone fired a gun during the alleged scuffle, but police were not able to immediately identify a suspect after the incident.

Meanwhile, 6ix9ine's manager, Tr3yway, is a person of interest in two shootings in Brooklyn, including the one after the Broner fight. He has not been arrested or hit with criminal charges.
