The singer went further and said, in the process of collecting the number from the lady he saw four men advancing towards him in a running motion, being so cautious of himself and not knowing who they were, he hopped straight in his car and drove off away for safety, in the process of leaving the scene in a rush he saw the lady on the floor.
He then said he actually visited the family of the victim and never had any intentions of trying to escape from the whole incident.
Clearly, this shows there was a brief misunderstanding between the victim and the celebrity which amounted to the social media saga and miss-interpretation of the whole incident which went viral on the media.
