French Montana Aims To Assist Cab Driver Whose Vehicle Was Damaged

French Montana is looking to assist a cab driver whose vehicle appears to have been damaged by fans celebrating the Knicks’ NBA championship.

Following the Knicks’ first NBA Finals victory in 53 years on Saturday night, fans crowded the streets of New York City, leading to some chaotic scenes. A viral video from the celebration features fans standing on and running across a taxi that had been overrun by the crowd. The driver appears distressed as several enthusiastic Knicks supporters stand on top of his vehicle.

After seeing the video, French Montana shared the clip online, expressing a desire to locate the driver to offer help.

“Somebody find him for me so we can help him get back on his feet,” French tweeted.

The celebrations on the streets turned chaotic, with thousands of fans marking the Knicks’ championship that many had only heard about. Reports indicate that a teenager was shot, four individuals were stabbed, and five buses were set ablaze following the victory, as noted by People. The New York City Police Department allegedly made 63 arrests.

The hip-hop community responded on social media, with rappers such as 50 Cent, Fat Joe, French Montana, Jim Jones, Raekwon, and Ben Reilly among those celebrating the Knicks’ return of the Larry O’Brien trophy to New York City.
