Lil Wayne is being dragged to court a former bodyguard who is suing the rapper after telling cops Wayne allegedly brandished a gun and punched him in the ear.
According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Carlos Christian claims Weezy threatened to shoot him with a semiautomatic rifle … a threat he says he took seriously considering Wayne once spent time in prison on weapons charges.

TMZ broke the story … Christian called cops back in December 2021, claiming Lil Wayne pulled an assault rifle on him during a dispute at the rapper’s Hidden Hills, CA home.
The bodyguard told police an altercation escalated to physical violence and Weezy ended up brandishing an AR-15, but sources close to Weezy denied the incident ever happened and claimed Wayne didn’t even own a gun.

In the docs, the guard says he incurred medical expenses, lost wages, and suffered emotional distress as a result of the alleged incident … and he’s going after Lil Wayne for compensatory and punitive damages.
We reached out to Wayne’s camp … so far no word back.
