Jim Jones was responding to the outpouring concern many of his social media followers were expressing after seeing a video of him fist fighting with two men in an airport. According to TMZ, the Love & Hip-HopĀ alum was at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport when the incident occurred. While it remains unclear exactly what prompted the brawl, things escalated quickly as Jones appeared to toss one of the men down a moving escalator.
Getting back up, the man then continued to exchange blows with the musician despite bleeding significantly from his head. A bystander seems to have got caught up in the tussle, and another man began hitting Jones in the back of the head while the rapper was trying to keep the other man restrained. Eventually police officers stepped in and separated everyone involved. Jones, who has maintained he was acting in self defense, can be heard telling authorities:
"It's two of them!...they jumping me...he assaulted me! They both assaulted me!"

The main aggressor fighting with Jones ended up in handcuffs as he continued to be hostile even towards police. At this time it's unclear if he or Jones were arrested, or if they will face any charges. Jones went on to give a statement following the altercation, stating:
"I was minding my business and defended myself. They got what they were looking for."
