Sean Combs Leaves Prison for Hospital After Medical Emergency

Sean "Diddy" Combs was taken from the federal prison at Fort Dix in New Jersey to a hospital after a medical emergency early Saturday morning, according to TMZ. The 56-year-old rapper was treated for a non-life-threatening head injury before returning to prison.

According to TMZ, an ambulance picked up Combs from the facility around 1 a.m. Sources cited by the outlet said he was conscious and speaking when he was taken for medical care, while the circumstances of the injury remain unclear.

Combs was sentenced in October 2025 to four years and two months in prison after being convicted of transporting people across state lines for sexual encounters, according to the source article. He was also fined half a million dollars.

The conviction followed allegations involving drug-fueled sexual encounters over several years and in multiple locations. The source article said Combs was acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges, which could have resulted in a life sentence.

The rapper is known for songs including "I'll Be Missing You" and "Bad Boy for Life". His career also includes his role as a hip hop mogul before the criminal case.

Before sentencing, Combs addressed his past conduct and described it as "disgusting, shameful" and "sick."

According to the source article, Combs is expected to be released from prison by January 2028.
