After the story broke yesterday of Fat Joe witnessing a double homicide, people close to the artist stepped forward today claiming he was nowhere near the incident.

Today John Garcia, the nephew of Fat Joe spoke to The New York Daily News and stated that Fat Joe is currently touring in Russia, and therefore could not have been witness to any altercation in Miami this weekend. "He left the Saturday before Memorial Day. He's on tour. I swear to God. He should be home in like three days," he explained. "Tell the police they've got their information wrong."
Miami police believed Fat Joe was a passenger in a rented SUV that contained Lessli Paz and Joey Navarro, when they became involved in an argument with men on the sidewalk. When the altercation escalated, police say Jermaine ’’Wufgang’’ Chamberline pulled a gun and fired into the group of people, killing Paz and Navarro. Police detained four men claiming to be friends of the victims but they proved to be uncooperative. Fat Joe was needed by police only to gather information, "If he's a witness, we'd love to speak with him," said Police Sgt. Bobby Hernandez.
