Authorities said Tuesday that a man who attacked rapper Tory Lanez in a California prison is an inmate serving a life sentence for second-degree murder who was previously convicted for an in-prison assault with a deadly weapon.

The rapper's Instagram account says his lungs collapsed after he was stabbed 14 times, but he is "in good spirits." Lanez is serving a 10-year sentence for shooting Megan Thee Stallion in 2020.

Tory Lanez was stabbed 14 times in prison and is now recovering, according to a statement posted to his social media.
