Lil Yachty Involved In Car Wreck In Atlanta

Lil Yachty is recovering following a scary car accident in Georgia.

According to TMZ, the rapper spun out hydroplaning in a red Ferrari sports car on Georgia State Route 400 on Monday (June 22). The 22-year-old was caught in puddles of standing water before losing control of the vehicle and colliding into a barrier on the shoulder, the outlet reported.

Thankfully, Yachty, whose real name is Miles Parks McCollum, walked away from the terrifying wreck unscathed save for minor arm injuries. Although first responders arrived on the scene, it remains unclear whether the “66” star decided to go to the hospital for treatment.

After the incident, the “Speed Me Up” musician took to Twitter, writing, “So thankful for my life. Never take it for granted.”

Before the wreck, Yachty had been attending protests with Black Lives Matter to protest against police brutality and demand justice for the killing of George Floyd.

“I feel like we gotta stand for something or we’ll fall for anything, you know what I’m saying?” Yachty said at a rally in Minnesota. “It doesn't make any sense to me ... why we have to go through breaking windows … just to show our frustration.”

“It shouldn't take that - but that's the life we live in, and we gotta do what we gotta do, we're gonna stick together, because that is most important,” he went on. “Whether you Black, whether you white, green, yellow, purple - we're a family and were gonna show them what it takes.”
