50 CENT'S LONG ISLAND HOUSE BURNS DOWN: House at center of lawsuit between rapper and baby mama.
As we all know Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson's life is filled with drama of one kind or another.
The latest example of his on-going drama happened Friday when the multimillion-dollar home at the center of a bitter dispute between the rapper/actor and the mother of his son was destroyed by a suspicious fire early Friday.
Six people, including 50's ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins and their 10-year-old son, Marquise, were taken to a hospital after suffering smoke inhalation and later released. A firefighter also suffered a minor eye injury, officials said.
50 Cent doesn't live in the home and wasn't there at the time.
"Informed this morning while filming a new motion picture on location in Louisiana, Curtis Jackson expressed deep concern over this fire at his property," a representative for 50 said in a statement. "He is extremely thankful that everyone including his son, Marquise, escaped the burning house safely. He is confident that authorities will be conducting a thorough investigation of the incident and is eager to review their findings."
The home was essentially burned to the ground, with charred embers and wreckage littering the lot where the home once stood in the tree-lined neighborhood in Dix Hills.
Investigators from the Suffolk County arson squad were called to the scene after Dix Hills Fire Chief Larry Feld deemed the blaze suspicious. The fire was reported at 4:59 a.m. and was extinguished about 45 minutes later, Feld said. The arson squad had finished its work at the scene six hours after the blaze.
