THREE 6 MAFIA SETTLE INJURED FAN SUIT

LATEST: Rap group THREE 6 MAFIA have settled a lawsuit by a teenager who claimed he was severely beaten at a concert when fans took the lyrics to the song LET'S START A RIOT too seriously. RAMONE WILLIAMS, from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, received financial compensation in October (06) but details of the settlement were sealed. Williams, who was 19 at the time, said he got into the now-defunct club in August 2003 and became uneasy when the song began. Before it was over, Williams alleged he was thrown to the floor, hit with a chair, stomped on and kicked in the face. His injuries included a fractured jaw. Williams previously won a default judgment against the club. Three 6 Mafia won an Academy Award earlier this year (06) for the song IT'S HARD OUT HERE FOR A PIMP from the movie HUSTLE + FLOW.
