The most recent news regarding the shooting of Kodak Black's security guard comes via the publication, which writes that Kodak was targeted by hitmen who were making threats against him earlier. Cops are reportedly looking into the threats that were made against Yak's life, specifically those that came from 808 Mafia producer Southside. 

"You still a b*tch. We can bump too. I'll be back in Miami in a week, pull up wherever, we could bump, don't bring no security," warned Southside in a message tagging Kodak over the weekend. "N***as wanna die in Miami," he sang in another clip, mimicking Kodak.
