During the months-long investigation, officers said a video was uploaded on YouTube by TMZ showing the altercation. Investigators said the video showed multiple men hitting and kicking Z-Ro, whose birth name is Joseph McVey, while he was curled up on the ground.

The video also showed, according to investigators, a man in an orange shirt, who was later identified as Trae Tha Truth, punching Z-Ro in the head.

According to John Donnelly with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, the charges filed against Trae, whose real name is Frazier Thompson, were dismissed after he completed a pre-trial diversion program.
