American rapper, 50 Cent, born Curtis Jackson,  in a post on Instagram recently,  stated that he fears for his life.

50 cents just posted a photo of a New York Daily News article about the commander’s threat on his Instagram account with the caption:

“I’m afraid for my life, I haven’t been able to sleep since I heard of this. The cops never notified me of the threat. I’m closing all my business in New York. I may have to sue the city.”

He stated that he fears for his life after news broke that an NYPD commanding officer told his subordinates to shoot the rapper on sight.

However, Gonzalez’s has said his “order” about 50 Cent was only a joke. According to an NYPD spokesman, the incident is under an internal review.
