Suge Knight Shooting Victim: Model Megan Hawkins Recovering After Club Violence

We previously reported that three partygoers were injured during the Aug. 24 shooting at 1Oak during a party Chris hosted. One of those was Megan, according to TMZ. Despite allegedly taking a bullet that may have been aimed at Chris or Suge, Megan seems to be in good spirits. 

A new image posted to Instagram shows the blonde model wearing a hospital gown and yellow socks. She smiles big as she stands with a walker. 

The model was shot once in her butt, according to TMZ. Ouch. We are so happy to hear she is recovering and even smiling during this difficult time. The TMZ report also claims that model posted the following online on Aug. 25: “my ass took a 9mm and I’m keeping it as a souvenir.” Megan has since deleted the comment.

Megan has a very successful modeling career. The blue-eyed beauty has modeled for Chanel and Yves St Laurent, according to Daily Mail. She was born in California. Since the scary incident, rumors have run wild about what really happened inside the club — and why.

Who Was Really Targeted During Pre-VMA Party Nightclub Shooting?

A source tells HollywoodLife.com that Chris, who hosted the party, had no involvement with the shooting. “He didn’t have anything to do with that situation,” our source revealed. Death Row records found Suge Knight was reportedly shot during the party, but thankfully he’s expected to make a full recovery.

We wish Megan all the best for a speedy and healthy recovery!
