Detroit police are standing by their story that Trick Trick was shot at a local nightclub last night (March 16) despite the rapper's denials.

Reports surfaced early Monday morning that Trick Trick was one of two men who was shot at the Esko Lounge Sunday night.

The reports claimed that Trick Trick was shot in the thigh and was expected to recover.

Hours later, Trick Trick would appear on Detroit's WKQI-FM (95.5) claiming that he was at home and denied being shot.

"I'm at home. I ain't left this house since Saturday," the rapper said.

Despite his denials, Detroit police confirmed to The Detroit Free Press that Trick Trick was shot last night and was treated at a local hospital.

They claim they questioned Trick Trick (born Christian Mathis) about the shooting and his denials are untrue.

"We did speak to this individual," said Sgt. Eren Stephens Bell . "His musical performance name is Trick Trick. I'm confirming he's a local rapper."

The identity of the other man who was shot was not revealed.
