For weeks, Drake has been involved in a heated rap battle with Kendrick Lamar.
In a disturbing development, Canadian rapper Drake’s Toronto mansion was the target of an alleged attempted break-in just one day after a security guard at the property was shot, according to The Guardian.
Police were called to the residence on Wednesday following reports of a suspect trying to enter the property. The suspect was detained without further incident and, fortunately, no injuries were reported.

This incident comes on the heels of a serious shooting that occurred on Tuesday morning. A security guard working at Drake’s home was seriously injured by unknown assailants who fled the scene in a vehicle.
Authorities are investigating both incidents but have not yet established a connection between them. The Guardianalso reports that the rap rivalry between Drake and Kendrick Lamar is not currently considered a factor. It remains unclear whether Drake was present at the mansion during any of the incidents.
In a statement, Toronto police confirmed they were called after a person attempted to access the property. The statement further details that the suspect was detained in accordance with the Mental Health Act and received medical attention.
The police stressed that the incident was not related to the shooting, for which they were still looking for the attacker, who fled in a vehicle.
No motive has been assigned for either incident, which comes in the middle of a particularly important month for Drake.
Drake’s mansion gained extra attention recently when it appeared on the cover of rival rapper Kendrick Lamar’s song “Not Like Us.”
Drake himself often references his home in Toronto, which he nicknames “The Embassy,” in his songs and on social media.
Security concerns are so great that the mansion’s gates are twice the height allowed by City of Toronto regulations.
