Two men accused of brutally attacking a Nardo Wick fan have surrendered to the Tampa Police Department, according to law enforcement sources. Zachary L. Benton, 34, and a 15-year-old male face charges of felony battery, with the latter also charged for being a minor in possession of a firearm while wearing a mask.
Notably, these suspects, identified as friends of friends rather than having a direct connection with the rapper, reached out to Nardo's team earlier in the week to coordinate their surrender. This unexpected move raises questions about their motives and relationship with the artist.
The victim, George, a 20-year-old fan seeking a photo with Nardo, suffered a severe concussion and brain bleed during the assault. As of now, his current condition remains unknown, shedding light on the gravity of the incident and its impact on the victim's health.
This incident not only highlights the dangers fans may face in pursuing interactions with celebrities but also prompts a closer examination of the relationship dynamics between artists and those in their periphery. As legal proceedings unfold, the case will likely offer more insights into the motives behind this shocking assault and its aftermath.
