Sources told AllHipHop.com that about 10 men rushed the lounge area, where they became involved in an altercation with Jones, of Harlem New York.

Shot were fired during the fracas and Trick Trick, born Christian Mathis, was struck in the thigh while an another unidentified man was hit in the arm.

"Trick Trick was home and in bed when this shooting happened," a source close to Trick Trick told AllHipHop.com. "As soon as Jim Jones walked in the club some n***as rushed him, then you saw people scattering because you heard the gunshots."

A controversial personality, Trick Trick has worked with artists like Dr. Dre, Eminem, Kid Rock and Ice Cube, and had recently come under criticism for his comments towards the gay community.
