Gunplay’s wife, Vonshae Taylor-Morales, addressed the incident on social media and revealed she’s obtained a restraining order. She’s also noted she’s in the process of filing for divorce.

“I just want everyone to know my daughter and I are safe,” she wrote. “My daughter safety is my first priority. Unfortunately Richard is back using and developed a very bad drinking problem. I’ve tried everything in my power to help him and love him. This is a demon he has to overcome on his own. At this point I really believe it’s too late. To summarize last night event. I asked Richard to quiet down as he scared the baby sleeping by yelling playing call of duty.

“He started going off on me for asking him to be quiet. I tried collect a bag so my daughter and I can go to a room while he sobers up. He didn’t want us to leave and things went left fast. He was arrested last night, the weapon is in police custody. I have a restraining order, my daughter is in my custody and I am filing for divorce. He will never get he chance to disrespect us again. Thank you all for the well wishes and prayers. This is a very traumatizing experience. Please keep me in your prayers.”
