Rapper Fetty Wap hospitalised after motorcycle accident

New Jersey - Rapper Fetty Wap has been injured in a motorcycle crash in his northern New Jersey hometown.

Paterson Police Director Jerry Speziale said the 25-year-old Wap was being treated at a hospital for undisclosed injuries after his motorcycle collided with a car on Saturday afternoon.

Wap's injuries are not considered life-threatening and the woman driving the car was not injured, and her name has not been released.

The crash remains under investigation and Fetty Wap has since received three summonses.

Speziale said the 25-year-old Wap was cited for driving without a license, not having insurance and failing to produce a vehicle registration card.

Wap, who was born Willie Maxwell, has had a lot of success in the past year with three Top-10 songs, including the hit "Trap Queen," which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.

His debut album, Fetty Wap, was released on Friday.
