50 Cent’s accused of burning down his own home by ex-girlfriend, Shaniqua Tompkins
Posted on May 30th, 2008 by Hot Momma
One of 50 Cent’s homes in Dix Hills, New York went up in flames early this morning and was completely destroyed. 50’s ex-girlfriend, Shaniqua Tompkins and his 10-year-old son, Marquise, were sent to the hospital for smoke inhalation along with 4 other people. They were treated and later released.
The Fire Department Chief doesn’t think the fire was an accident. He said that arson investigators were called in and there are currently no suspects.
The house has a dramatic history. Last month, 50 tried to throw out Shaniqua and his son from the home. He told her to pay him $4,500 in rent or she had to get out. Shaniqua filed a lawsuit claiming 50 promised to put the $1.4 million house in her name.
TMZ has a video of Shaniqua and 50 cents screaming at each other on the streets of Manhatten yesterday. The fight occurred shortly after the two were being deposed at Shaniqua’s lawyer’s offices. During the depo, one of 50’s friends went crazy and started trashing the lawyer’s offices. A police report was filed.
50’s spokesperson issued this statement to TMZ: “Informed this morning while filming a new motion picture on location in Louisiana, Curtis Jackson expressed deep concern over this fire at his property. He is extremely thankful that everyone including his son, Marquise, escaped the burning house safely. He is confident that authorities will be conducting a thorough investigation of the incident and is eager to review their findings.”
The lawyer for Shaniqua Tompkins, told TMZ that she heard “someone” come into the house this morning at 4 AM, shortly before the fire broke out around a hour later. In a rant to the press Shaniqua alleges that 50 Cents tried to kill her, that he’s obsessed with her. She said in an impromptu news conference:
“He said he was going to have someone come kill me and watch what he does. And then look what he did. He had made no contact to see how his son is doing.”
