A bouncer who accused Lil Wayne of assaulting him outside a Hollywood club in 2016 has reached a settlement with the rapper.
As Fox 11 reports, bouncer Andrew Nunemacher’s lawyers filed court documents this week that stated the case had been conditionally resolved. While the docs do not mention settlement terms such as financial figures or other conditions Wayne must meet, they do indicate his attorneys plan to file papers to dismiss the case by the start of June.
The 38-year-old Nunemacher alleged that he suffered mental and emotional harm in connection with the incident, which he said left him with physical injuries rendering him unable to work. He was employed as a bouncer at Hyde Sunset at the time of the incident, which he claimed went down on June 27, 2016. He said a person with Weezy became angry when he wouldn’t let them in, and that as a result the rapper punched Nunemacher and threw alcohol on him as he hit the ground.
According to the lawsuit filed in June 2017, Wayne called him “white boy” after hitting him; Nunemacher’s lawyers it was a racially motivated attack. Andrew alleged assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and civil rights violations.
Lil Wayne, via his attorneys, has denied the allegations and said security camera evidence shows no such assault. His lawyers said Nunemacher “had no issue working the rest of his shift following the alleged incident.”
Despite denying the claims, it looks as though a settlement was reached and the case will be closed.
