Bad Boy Founder and Revolt TV mogul Diddy has been in a lot of trouble recently as he faces a series of lawsuits. However, he has recently been accused of bribing a nightclub security guard who was at the scene of a 199 shooting that landed his former signee Shyne in prison.
The victim, Natalia Reuben, was shot outside Club New York on December 27th, 1999, but was not fatally injured. However, she has recently taken to social media, accusing Diddy of being involved in some shape or form.
Addressing her followers, the victim stated, “Let me tell you why that is of utmost importance to me. Because I am the woman he shot in the face in that December 27th, 1999 Club New York shooting. I have told everyone ad nauseam since then, even the surgeon who did the surgery to take the bullet, I got shot in my face with a 9mm hollow-point bullet called a cop killer.”
She continued, “I literally told everyone and never changed what I said. I watched him, I got [shot] in the face, I watched him fire the gun. I’ve said it all this time. Even the surgeon who did my surgery testified in the criminal trial that while they were putting me under [anaesthesia].”
Recalling how she made the allegations at the time, Reuben added, “I was screaming, ‘Puffy [shot] me in the face.’… Everybody knew he did it, but he paid off the club bouncer and all these other people to hide the video. That’s his MO.”
Reuben received $2 million in a settlement following the incident but also accused the tycoon (real name Sean Combs) of intimidating her by flattening her car. This claim was first levelled against Diddy by Kid Cudi.
Although Reuben is insistent that Diddy paid off a nightclub security guard and was behind the shooting, in a 2020 conversation with Fat Joe, Shyne told a story that completely discredits Reuben’s recollection of events.
