Rumors have circulated recently stating that Lil Tjay is paralyzed.

It comes after the rapper was shot numerous times at a shopping centre in New Jersey.

Several fans were worried sick on learning from fake reports that the rapper was “brain dead”.

However, right now there are no valid sources confirming that the music star is paralyzed.

The rumors seem to have stemmed from a tweet that also made other claims that are not backed up by any official report.

None of Lil Tjay's close family or friends have spoken or confirmed anything about him being paralyzed.

It's safe to say that until these rumors are actually backed up, they should not be taken as truth.

Last week rumors online speculating that the star was dead were abundant. These were later proven to be untrue.

Lil Tjay was hospitalized and reportedly in stable condition after he was shot at a shopping center just after midnight on June 22.

The rap star, whose real name is Tione Jayden Merritt, underwent emergency surgery after the attack, according to TMZ.

Mohamed Konate was charged with attempted murder, armed robbery, and weapons offenses in connection to the shooting.

Along with Konate, the two men with Tjay at the time of the shooting, Jeffrey Valdez and Antoine Boyd, have been arrested and charged with second-degree unlawful possession of a weapon.
