The sultry stunner shot in the leg after a deadly gunfight broke out at a T.I. concert is “grateful” to be alive.
Model Maggie Carrie Heckstall took to social media Thursday, saying she
was lucky to survive the chaotic carnage that unfolded inside a green
room at Irving Plaza.
“I’m SO VERY grateful for life,” Heckstall, 26, posted on Instagram.
The aspiring singer, who had been celebrating her birthday with friends
all week, was recovering at Bellevue Hospital after Wednesday’s gunplay
left Heckstall and two others wounded and 33-year-old Ronald McPhatter
dead.
Heckstall received a visit early Thursday morning from rap superstar 50 Cent.
“God is good,” she wrote later on Facebook.
The Bronx-born beauty was in a backstage area with T.I. and others
around 10 p.m. Wednesday when a beef between rappers Troy Ave and Maino
boiled over into bloodshed.
Surveillance video from the VIP area captured Troy Ave busting into a room and opening fire as onlookers cower against a wall, trying to shield one another from the bullets.
Downstairs in the main concert hall, bedlam broke out as the crowd
panicked and fought one another to flee the packed room, witnesses said.
Troy Ave, of Brownsville, Brooklyn, accidentally shot himself in the leg during the chaos, sources said.
He was charged with reckless endangerment and illegal weapons
possession and is expected to face a murder charge pending the results
of a ballistics test, according to sources.
