Get Well Soon Double O

Sunday, August 3rd, 2008

This just in from Kidz In The Hall’s management camp:

“Double O from the hip-hop group Kidz In The Hall was assaulted by several bouncers early Saturday morning, July 26, while inside a nightclub in Tempe, AZ following a Kidz In The Hall performance.

“Group member and friend Naledge, who did not witness the assault on Double O, was arrested outside of the club. Naledge’s attempt to get medical assistance for Double O was misconstrued as a hinderence to the investigation.

“Reports that no injuries were sustained are false as Double O was taken to the hospital with multiple injuries from the excessive force used by club security. On Sunday morning Double O underwent surgery for one of his injuries. He is still in the hospital, but in stable condition.”

Get well soon wishes go out to Double O (aka one of the nicest guys you could hope to meet in this whole messy hip-hop world).
