As the verbal altercation escalated the man headed to Minaj’s room where they were both staying. The rapper then ordered hotel staff to call the police as she made her way to the room.

When officers arrived at Minaj’s room, she told them her attacker hit her in the lower lip before leaving the scene. An incident report was taken, but Minaj refused to press charges against the man.
