The altercation allegedly occurred after guards conducted a sweep of inmates’ jail cells.
The mystery as to what caused prison officials to rush music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs to a hospital early Saturday morning has apparently been solved.
The incident reportedly had to do with the internal response to Diddy’s well-publicized, alleged pampered and privileged life behind bars and a subsequent sweep for contraband.
Combs, 56, was taken by ambulance around 1 a.m. for treatment for a head injury. He returned the jail a few hours later presumably after receiving the necessary care.
Hollywood gossip site TMZ clams to have the scoop on what happened from what it learned from multiple sources.
It turns out that, if the report is accurate, things apparently can get a little rough even in a low-security federal facility like the Fort Dix Correctional Institution in New Jersey where Diddy is serving his sentence.
According to TMZ:
“Diddy busted his head during a fight with another famous, or infamous, inmate…a Jamaican drug lord known as ‘Dudus,’ and TMZ has learned the fight was over Diddy getting all the inmates in trouble…
“Diddy and ‘Dudus’…came to blows last Friday, and Diddy got the worst of it…we’re told the two men were fighting because Dudus, and many other inmates, are pissed at Diddy for getting exposed in that NBC News report about his luxurious life behind bars. As a result, prison officials have conducted at least 2 raids and confiscated cell phones from inmates…including Dudus…”
Both men are reportedly now in solitary confinement at the Fort Dix jail, although Diddy had already been sent there, officially known as the special housing unit, allegedly as a result of what NBC had reported.
“[T]he fight went down when he was out for his daily break,” TMZ added.
Watch TMZ’s Charles Latibeaudiere further discuss this incident during which he mentions that “it’s fairly common that inmates have contraband cell phones inside these prisons.”
As [your]NEWS previously detailed, Sean “Diddy” Combs was convicted in federal court on July 2, 2025, of two counts of transporting individuals across state lines to engage in prostitution under the Mann Act. Jurors, however, rejected the most serious accusations against him.
He is currently due to be released on March 2, 2028.
