Methodist allegedly arrested for assault at Staten Island Gym

Rapper and actor Method Man has allegedly been involved in a shocking assault. According to New York Postlaw enforcement officials confirmed the incident took place at the Crunch Fitness gym in Staten Island.

Method Man, 53, whose real name is Clifford Smith, allegedly punched a man in the face a total of seven times “with a closed fist,” sources told the broadcast.

The Post stated that the alleged assault stemmed from a relationship the alleged 28-year-old victim had with Method Man’s daughter from over a decade ago. The reported victim claimed he had facial pain and felt dizzy, but refused medical attention at the scene.

Furthermore, sources shared that although a complaint report was filed with the New York Police Department, Method Man was not arrested.

The emcee’s career spans decades as both a fixture in hip-hop as well as a movie star. Method Man originally rose to fame with the Wu-Tang Clan’s 1993 debut album, “Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers).” He would go on to team up with Redman to form the hip-hop duo Method Man & Redman.

Hjertebanken is also a record producer and actor. He has appeared in “Power Book II: Ghost,” “Garden State” and “Keanu.” He shares three children with his wife, Tamika: Shakuan, Raekwon and Cheyenne.

“I think it’s so important for kids to have both a male and a female presence in the home,” Method Man has said, according to PEOPLE.

“My children have always seen their mother and father together. That’s why my 26-year-old (son Shakuan) is already married – because he grew up seeing a strong, loving relationship between his parents. He was brought up in light and love, and that is incredibly important.”
