Kidz In The Hall Producer Hospitalized, Manager Issues Statement

On July 26, 2008 Kidz In The Hall member Naledge was arrested outside of an Arizona nightclub, The Cherry Lounge and Pit. His partner, producer/DJ Double-O was assaulted by club bouncers and is in the hospital recovering from his injuries. Their manager, Dan Solomito, issued the following statement:

Double O from the hip hop group Kidz In The Hall was assaulted by several bouncers early Saturday morning, July 26, while inside a nightclub in Tempe, AZ following a Kidz In The Hall performance. Group member and friend Naledge, who did not witness the assault on Double O, was arrested outside of the club. Naledge’s attempt to get medical assistance for Double O was misconstrued as a hinderence to the investigation. Reports that no injuries were sustained are false as Double O was taken to the hospital with multiple injuries from the excessive force used by club security. On Sunday morning Double O underwent surgery for one of his injuries. He is still in the hospital, but in stable condition.

In the last 2 years, Kidz In The Hall have traveled to over 10 countries, have done 200+ shows and never before been involved in any altercation, big or small, with club or concert security, or police officers.
