Rapper Tory Lanez was charged Thursday with shooting Megan Thee Stallion earlier this year in the Hollywood Hills, according to the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office.
Lanez, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, faces one felony count each of assault with a semiautomatic firearm and carrying a loaded, unregistered firearm in a vehicle.
On July 12, Lanez, 28, allegedly got into an argument with Megan, 25, while riding in an SUV in the Hollywood Hills.
When Megan exited, Lanez allegedly told her “dance, bitch” before squeezing off several shots at her feet, according to media reports.
The “WAP” rapper publicly accused Lanez of shooting her on Instagram in August.
“Yes, this n—a Tory shot me,” she said in the video. “You shot me, and you got your publicist and your people going to these blogs lyin’ and s–t. Stop lyin’. Why lie?”
A few days earlier, Megan shared gory photos on Instagram of her getting stitches removed from her heel, where a bullet tore through her skin.
The “Hot Girl Summer” rapper has said that she was “real life hurt and traumatized” by the incident.
Lanez, who has repeatedly denied shooting Megan, is scheduled to be arraigned Oct. 13 in Los Angeles County Superior Court.
If convicted, he faces up to 22 years in prison.
