\n\tSean Combs<\/a> was involved in a fight with another inmate at Fort Dix earlier this week, resulting in the Bad Boy founder being sent to solitary confinement, according to multiple reports.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tA fellow inmate at the low-security federal prison in New Jersey allegedly taunted Combs, who reportedly lashed out at the man, TMZ<\/a> first reported. The pair are said to have exchanged shoves and throws, before prison guards were able to separate them. Afterwards, Combs was reportedly put in solitary confinement<\/a>. It is not clear if the other inmate was also reprimanded for his part in the scuffle.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tA representative for Combs said they were \u201cunable to confirm this [report] at the moment\u201d when asked for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tA spokesperson for Fort Dix declined to comment when approached by Rolling Stone<\/em>. \u201cWe are not at liberty to disclose or provide internal information pertaining to any inmate in our custody,\u201d said a prison representative. \u201cSuch information would not be available for the public domain.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tCombs is currently serving a 50-month sentence after his conviction on transportation to engage in prostitution charges last July. It followed a high-profile, eight-week long federal criminal trial in New York where Combs was acquitted of more serious charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tThe 56-year-old\u2019s notorious temper and his propensity for physical violence played a dominant role in his trial last year. Combs was accused of routinely beating his then-girlfriend, the singer Casandra \u201cCassie\u201d Ventura throughout their decade-long relationship, which ended in 2018. Former staffers alleged they also were subjected to violence at the hands of their boss.\u00a0<\/p>\n
