Earlier today, 35-year-old rapper Rick Ross was left unconscious after having a seizure on an airplane. According to E!, He departed from Ft. Lauderdale at 12:27 p.m., but returned at 1:05 due to the medical emergency. Broward County medical workers were there to assist the Ross, who was reportedly due to perform at Memphis Madness and attend the ribbon cutting at one of his Wingstop franchises.
“Fire rescue treated the adult male on the scene and transported him by ground to Broward General Medical Center,” explained a spokesman for the Broward County sheriff. “Due to HIPPA rules, the patient’s identity and medical condition are confidential.”
Following his seizure, signees of Rick Ross’s Maybach Music Group, Wale and Meek Mill, tweeted that Ross was in 100% health. Even Rick Ross himself tweeted that he was in good health and followed by releasing a twit-video of him boarding a private jet.
Unfortunately, after tweeting video and refusing treatment, Ross suffered from another seizure. The plane was diverted and landed in Alabama after Ross had a seizure on board.
A representative for Birmingham Shuttlesworth Airport confirms, “There was a private plane that was routed here for medical purposes. This plane didn’t go through our main terminal. We have a fixed based operator called Atlantic Aviation that handles our general aviation (private planes).”
Atlantic Aviation tells E! News, “No one is at liberty to discuss this.”
His frequent foe 50 Cent won’t be praying for the “biggest bawse,” but he did relay a word of advice: “he gotta take care his self.”
Rick Ross is said to be in stable condition, and Yo Gotti was asked to to perform solo at the event.
