Tory Lanez is currently recovering after a violent stabbing incident at the California Correctional Institution left him with severe injuries, including two collapsed lungs.

Earlier reports indicated that Lanez had been attacked by another inmate and was in critical but stable condition. However, a recent update shared via his official Instagram account reveals the full extent of his injuries—far worse than initially reported.

According to the post, Lanez was stabbed 14 times: seven times in the back, four in the torso, twice in the back of the head, and once on the side of his face. As a result, both of his lungs collapsed, requiring immediate medical intervention.

He was placed on a breathing machine following the attack but is now breathing on his own and able to speak. Despite this progress, the injuries are grave and his road to recovery will likely be long.

The news came as a shock to fans and observers alike. Just days before the incident, Lanez had shared recent photos showing off a more muscular physique and had been teasing new music. Despite being incarcerated, he had remained active in his creative pursuits.

The motive behind the attack remains unknown, and authorities have not released information about the assailant or whether Lanez will be transferred to another facility. His hospitalization timeline is also uncertain, though given the nature of his injuries, a prolonged stay is expected.

More updates will be provided as the situation develops.
