New video obtained by Channel 2 Action News shows the moments that an actor was allegedly beat up by rapper Machine Gun Kelly’s entourage at a Buckhead hotel last month.
The surveillance video from a hotel lobby appears to show four men attack Gabriel “G-Rod” Rodriguez. One man in a gray shirt picks him up and slams him to the ground, and the other men hit and kick him, the video shows.
The man who allegedly body-slammed the actor is believed to be Kelly’s personal bodyguard, according to police.
The apparent attack on Rodriguez followed a heated exchange between Rodriguez and Kelly at the Twin Peaks restaurant on Piedmont Road.
Rodriguez told Channel 2 Action News in September that he had an issue with Kelly ever since the rapper called Eminem’s daughter “hot as (expletive)” in a tweet when she was just 16 years old.
Rodriguez was in Atlanta filming a television show at the time of the attack.
“He’s a coward for having his goons jump me," he said.
