THE RAPPER WAS ‘FOAMING’ AT THE MOUTH
In the 911 call obtained by TMZ, Rich Homie Quan’s girlfriend, Amber Williams told the dispatcher that he was not breathing and doesn’t have a heartbeat. She explained that she placed a blanket over the rapper thinking he was still sleeping and then left to take her son to school.
However, when she got back, she “didn’t feel a heartbeat” and noticed he wasn’t breathing.
“I don’t feel a heartbeat. I don’t see him breathing,” she said according to New York Post.
She also said that the rapper started foaming at the mouth when she tried to move him. Williams told dispatchers that he had fallen asleep on the couch the night prior and hadn’t moved by the time she checked on him that morning.
