Officials confirmed that rapper Lil Nas X was hospitalized after a bizarre incident in Los Angeles early Thursday morning. According to witnesses, the artist was seen walking down the middle of Ventura Boulevard around 4 a.m., wearing only underwear and cowboy boots.
Eyewitnesses reported that at one point, Lil Nas X appeared to float aimlessly down the street before pointing at a passing car that was recording him. He was also heard muttering about heading to a party and placed an orange traffic cone on his head during the incident.
The Los Angeles Police Department had already received multiple calls regarding a nude man wandering in the roadway. When officers arrived, they found Lil Nas X still moving in and out of traffic. After he allegedly charged at officers, police subdued him and placed him in handcuffs for safety.
Paramedics who responded to the scene suspected a possible overdose. Lil Nas X was transported to a local hospital, where he is currently receiving treatment.
