Pictured Above: KI showing injuries he sustained in a Florida restaurant on Friday. Kris Veeshal Persad, aka ‘KI,’ was slapped, hit with a beer bottle to the face and then beaten by six (6) men on Friday night (10th March 2023) at a restaurant in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The incident occurred when KI went to use the washroom at the restaurant, while waiting for his meal to arrive. The Former Chutney Soca Monarch posted a video on his Facebook page on Saturday, which showed a bandage to the right side of his head, and bruises on his head, eye and arms. KI briefly explained in the video what happened at the restaurant. The “Single Forever” artiste appeared to be in good spirits in the 54-second video, as he chuckled while relating the attack. He said, “Imagine I come quite Florida to get my ass cut. All my hands, I think this eye bloodshot. So we in a restaurant last night. Some fella took me for some wrong idea or something, or whatever it is. I heard him talking when I was going into the bathroom in the restaurant. I heard him talking like ‘I don’t care who he is.’ Like he had it in his mind or whatnot. I just got a slap and then he take he beer bottle and he break it on my face here. I got cut up all over. I remember I was on the ground. I watched up and they were just beating me. They stamped on my head, my belly, my back. They beat me real bad, boy. Six of them. For the love of chutney, eh?” When his video was reposted on social media, KI commented to social media users that the attack was “random.” He posted a photo of the alleged attacker who instigated the assault to his Facebook page, saying “This d dude that jump me with his boys last night ... A name anybody?” He has since filed a report with the Hollywood Police Department, Broward County, Florida. Persad won the Chutney Soca Monarch title on three occasions — in 2012, 2014 and 2016. Hundreds of fans posted get-well messages to his social media pages and expressed their outrage over the incident. [Source: Trinidad Express]
