6ix9ine has cleared up any rumors about the Island Boys being behind the recent burglary of his Florida home.

During a stream with Adin Ross, Ben Da Donnn and Neon, 6ix9ine provided some details about the home invasion that saw the rapper’s 60-year-old mother come face-to-face with two gunmen.

"I guess people saw that I was working and took the opportunity," 6ix9ine said of the situation. "They were kids from the looks of it."

When Ross brought up the popular online theory that the Island Boys were involved in the robbery, 6ix9ine denied it. "There are 230 homes in my neighborhood," he explained. "It was kids in the neighborhood."

He continued: "There were no tattoos, so that myth that it was the two brothers, that’s just a myth — an Instagram conspiracy. I'm glad my mom's okay and my family's okay."

6ix9ine’s house was invaded by four armed individuals on Sunday (November 16). That night, while 6ix9ine wasn’t home, the rapper’s mother was held outside while the group entered the home.

In a statement from the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office, a detailed breakdown of the situation revealed what happened.

"Road Patrol deputies were dispatched to the above address for a home invasion robbery/burglary in progress," the statement read. "Upon arrival, deputies made contact with several individuals inside the residence who reported that four armed, masked men entered the home with handguns. They stated that the homeowner’s mother was held physically outside while the remaining suspects ran inside and ransacked the property."

"The suspects asked for cash and car keys," the statement continued. "A K-9 track and search of the residence was conducted with negative results. Suspects possibly left in a vehicle prior to deputies' arrival."

Earlier this month, court documents viewed by Complex revealed that the federal government wants 6ix9ine back behind bars for violating his supervised release.

Prosecutors, who are calling for the 29-year-old to serve up to nine months due to the violation, said last week that their intention is to "send a message to [6ix9ine] and other government cooperators — or those considering cooperating with the government — that they are not above the law by virtue of their status as cooperators, and that when they earn leniency at sentencing, this is not to be taken as a green-light to recidivate."

Previously, Lance Lazzaro, an attorney for 6ix9ine, instead argued that his client should receive house arrest. Per Lazzaro, any possible time behind bars would be spent "segregated and fully isolated from other inmates," leading to his client being allowed "extremely limited social interaction" and "very little time outside."

Due to the home invasion, 6ix9ine has requested to postpone his sentencing until January so he can move his family to "ensure their safety."
