50 Cent Associate Accused Of Striking Woman

An employee of 50 Cent was arrested yesterday at the rapper's Connecticut home after allegedly attacking a woman.

According to local New York paper Newsday, Farmington, CT police arrested 27 year-old Dwayne McKenzie yesterday after receiving a call from a 22 year-old woman.

McKenzie is accused of choking the New Britain woman and striking her with a belt during an argument at 50's house. McKenzie has been charged with assault, strangulation, breach of peace and unlawful restraint.

McKenzie is currently on conditional discharge stemming from an arrest in Hartford for allegedly pistol-whipping a nightclub promoter.

The G-Unit associate has a history of legal problems, which also includes a 2007 incident where he was accused of firing a .40 caliber Glock in a crowd after being robbed of his $100,000 diamond and platinum chain.

McKenzie was released after posting $10,000 bond and is due back in court July 15.
