RAPPER Young Scooter’s cause of death has been revealed, after the tragic artist who had worked with Future and Gucci Mane died on his 39th birthday.
The artist, real name Kenneth Bailey, died last Friday after he cut his right thigh on a wooden fence, which lead to “marked” blood loss, according to Fulton County Medical Examiner.

The medical examiner said: “This injury was not a gunshot wound.
“Mr. Bailey injured himself on organic (wooden) fencing material and/or woody debris after vaulting at least one fence.”
The large artery in the leg supplies blood to the legs and thighs, and injury to it can lead to a dangerous amount of blood loss.
The Atlanta rapper was allegedly fleeing cops when he suffered a gruesome leg injury.
But cops have now said that the incident which led to the rapper’s tragic death may have been sparked by a fake 911 call about a naked woman being held hostage.
They also offered a $5,000 reward to anyone who could identify the mystery caller.
Police did not elaborate on the injury but he was pronounced dead at the Grady Marcus Trauma Center in Atlanta after emergency teams took him there following the incident.
According to reports by 11 Alive that cited Atlanta Police Department Lt. Andrew Smith, cops were called to a home after calls about shots being fired.
Police now say that this call was a complete fabrication, and appears to be an instance of swatting – where someone falsely reports a crime to police.
This could lead to police responding and embarrassing the victim of the call, but could become deadly like in this situation.
Audio of the call obtained by TMZ features a woman who claims to be part of the “neighbourhood watch” telling cops that one house has men coming in and out for alleged drug deals.
She also claimed they were armed and were brandishing their “guns in the air”.
According to the woman on the line, a naked woman was dragged from the house by a man who then proceeded to fight her outside.
She said the naked woman then brought back other men who shot at the house.
The caller then claimed that the naked woman was “bleeding profusely from her head” and needed help immediately.

The story did not add up, as the caller later claimed that the injured woman was being “held hostage” by the men in the house after she was beaten up, despite previously saying that she had left to bring other men to shoot at the house.
The woman calling in also alleged that the injured woman had a “baby” in the house, but she didn’t mention what made her believe that.
She also speculated that the men in the house might have been running some kind of sex trafficking operation.
The woman then urged police to arrive as soon as possible over concerns that the woman and her child would be hurt.
But none of what the caller warned about appeared to have been true.
Police said there were no signs of the alleged confrontation with the woman, her child, or recent gunfire shot at the house.
When officers arrived on the scene, a man reportedly slammed the door in their faces, and two men ran out of the back of the home when cops were working on securing the scene.
Cops said that Young Scooter appeared to have fled the home from the back while police were still at the front.
At a press conference on Friday night, the Atlanta Lt said: “One male returned back into the house.
“The other male jumped two fences as he was fleeing.
“When officers located him on the other side of the fence, he appeared to have suffered an injury to his leg.”
The rapper, who was not identified by Smith at the conference, later died in hospital.
Smith denied reports that emerged shortly after the incident that Bailey was fatally shot by cops.
He said: “Just to be very clear, the injury that was sustained was not via the officers on scene. It was when the male was fleeing.”
The rapper was known for his work with fellow rappers Gucci Mane and Future.
Bailey, who was born in South Carolina and moved to Atlanta at the age of nine was signed with Future’s Freebanz label in 2012.
That year he also released his first hit, “Colombia,” before later collaborating with Future, Juicy J, and Young Thug on “DI$Function.”
Some of his collaborations have seen him feature in Billboard’s Top 100 songs and other charts.
Playboi Carti honoured the late rapper on Instagram, saying: “I GREW UP ON DIS SH*T SMH RIP.”
Migos rapper Quavo shared two heartbroken emojis writing: “ion understand.”
