An employee of 50 Cent who lives at his Connecticut mansion is facing assault and gun charges after he allegedly pistol whipped a nightclub promoter last week.

Police report that Dwaye "Hove" McKenzie pistol whipped Hartford nightclub promoter Howard Allison during an argument October 10 outside of Club Life nightclub in Hartford.

The assault allegedly stems from the two getting into a disagreement because Allison wouldn't announce an after party that was taking place at 50 Cent's Connecticut mansion.

Police say McKenzie pulled up to Allison and asked him to promote the after party to which Allison allegedly replied "You don't call someone up threatening to smack them because they don't big you up in the club." It was then that McKenzie reportedly got out of his Cadillac Escalade and struck Allison in the chin followed by a blow to the right eye with a pistol.

Police stopped McKenzie in downtown Hartford on Sunday (Oct. 14) and proceeded to find a 9MM and another handgun. McKenzie lost the right to possess a gun over the summer after he shot at a man who robbed him.

McKenzie is currently being held on $750,000 bail. He is due back in court November 6.
