El Chulo found himself in a heated altercation this past weekend in New York with fellow Cuban singer Leamsy Izquierdo Molina, popularly known as Leamsy "La Figura".
On his Instagram, the veteran reggaeton artist shared a statement with his followers, revealing that he has been accused of assault and will be turning himself in to the police.
"I want to express my deepest gratitude to all my fans. Your unconditional support and selfless love have been my driving force and inspiration. Every word of encouragement, every gesture of affection, has left an indelible mark on my heart. TOMORROW I WILL SURRENDER to the authorities of New York City 'Precinct 14' due to an assault accusation allegedly made against me. Only God knows what will happen," El Chulo wrote in his post.
"To my fans, I want to apologize. I feel like I let you down as an artist. But as my mom always says, do whatever it takes out of respect. This is my last photo, and I know I will soon be back on the streets giving you music, which is the only thing I know how to do. The day I have to call the police on a man, I will take my own life. These are codes, but well, what would you know about honor, loyalty, and respect," added the reggaeton artist, subtly addressing Leamsy.
Several influencers shared images on their social media of the altercation between the two artists, which involved physical confrontation.
