American singer, rapper and actor Colson Baker – better known to the world as Machine Gun Kelly – is filming his first film ‘Good Mourning with a U’ in Los Angeles. Apparently it hasn't all been plain sailing.
Machine Gun Kelly was reported to the police for allegedly assaulting an LA parking attendant while shooting a film but production sources tell TMZ that the confrontation was never physical.
TMZ claims that the attendant in question filed a police report against the boyfriend of Meghan Fox, accusing him of battery. MGK is said to have pushed the staffer in the chest in a parking lot where the singer and his pal Mod Sun are filming ‘Good Mourning With a U’. The parking attendant claims MGK made the move because he was angry about being delayed in getting to his vehicle.
The staffer, however, told the police that he had suffered no injures and there were “no witnesses” to the alleged incident.
Nah. Him and Megan are not a good fit. He’s spiralling

But sources familiar with the situation told TMZ that the attendant’s claims were bogus. The man actually interrupted shooting by mistakenly wandering onto the set, the pro-MGK camp claims. Apparently, the staffer was not aware that filming was taking place. He and some crew member got into a skirmish and MGK allegedly intervened. According to insiders, the musician indeed yelled at the attendant but didn’t make any physical contact with him. The parking attendant's “no witnesses” claim thus raises more questions.
He shoved somebody wrong yeah but is it battery lol. How do we know the parking attendant wasn't up in his grill asking to MGK to sign his starter cap?

According to TMZ, there is a good chance the case will go to the LA City Attorney’s Office but since the purported victim has sustained no injury and there is no evidence to support his cause, it could easily be dismissed.
The singer has kept silent on social media about the reported incident. However, he tweeted on 13 August that his shooting of ‘Papercuts’ music video resulted in a police ticket for a no-helmet motorcycle ride.
favorite part of the papercuts video was me and Cole waiting 3 years to shoot something together and on the very first shot the cops pulled us over and shut it down cuz i was riding a motorcycle without a helmet, he was filming in a trunk with no seatbelt, and we got tickets
