On Sunday, Joshua Pippens took to Instagram to share footage of a domestic altercation between himself and his woman outside his residence in which he ended up getting shot by the woman's 10-year-old son who according to him, she shared with rapper Lil Durk.

He narrated in the caption of the post

"As y’all can see I was not the aggressor and y’all also can see how I still had my gun on my hip he grabbed my gun off my hip following his moms lead and tried to shoot me and then actually shot me."

Pippens also claimed that he was shot by Lil Durk's alleged son in the stomach and shared footage of himself in the hospital with stitches on his torso. Along with the video, he shared an investigative report from the Department of Child Services detailing the incident.

The report narrated the incident from an interview with Lil Durk's 10-year-old son. The 10-year-old stated that he and his mother returned to his stepdad's home on July 1, after which an argument broke out between Lil Durk's baby mama and Pippens. The boy kept asking his mother to stop fighting.

As per the report Durk's son got out of the car and pushed Pippens. He admitted to his mother having a gun but also claimed that it did not go off. When his step-father's gun dropped to the ground following a confrontation with the boy's mom, the 10-year-old picked it up and shot Joshua Pippens to protect his mom.

The boy said the couple often yelled at each other and that his mother got "really mad, really fast." DCS requested the removal of the 10-year-old and his two siblings from their mother's custody.

Joshua Pippens shared an Instagram story saying he had a gun to protect himself and never imagined being shot by his stepson, claiming the boy only knew what his mother showed him.

Pippens also put out another Instagram story in which he prayed for Lil Durk to get full custody of his kid and himself to receive full custody of his kids with Lil Durk's baby mama.

In yet another Instagram story Joshua Pippens wrote

"Whatever makes y'all feel better that's why I got custody of my kids and she don't y'all so internet, think (sic) got it was me that took the shot and not her that's still my daughters mom but she knows like ik. GOD HAS ALWAYS BEEN GOOD TO ME SURVIVOR."
