Jim Jones Caught Brawling At Airport With Two Men On An Escalator: 'They Got What They Were Looking For'
Jim Jones was caught on video fighting two men in an airport in a brawl he claims was self-defense.
Footage obtained by TMZ shows Jones, formally Joseph Guillermo Jones II, involved in a violent altercation with two men on an escalator at Fort-Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport in Florida.
The video begins with the men standing in close proximity on the moving stairs. Already grappling, Jones grips the man and tosses him down the stairs, resulting in the unidentified man's bloodied forehead.
Knocking many over in the process, another man in a black collared shirt gets up to adjust his glasses before swinging to hit Jones in the head multiple times. When police arrived at the scene, the man pointed to the rapper, identifying him as an aggressor.
"Hey! Knock it off!" a woman in Sheriff's gear urged Jones while grabbing him by the collar. "It's two of them against me!" the 47-year-old yelled repeatedly.
The rapper was seen with his hands in the air, signaling his standing down; however, the man involved with the altercation wasn't done yet. "He [Jones] assaulted me," the man claimed, as three more officials arrived at the scene.
"I was minding my business and defended myself. They got what they were looking for," Jones said in a statement to TMZ.
According to the media outlet, it remains unclear if anyone has been arrested because of the altercation. Despite the rapper's explosive brawl between two unnamed men, the Byrd Gang Boss remains unfazed.
His recent instagram Story showed him partying at Taboo Miami just hours after the fight took place.
"Come catch this vibe," he wrote alongside a video.
