Sean “Diddy” Combs was tossed into solitary confinement after a fight with a fellow inmate this week.
The embattled music mogul got into a heated altercation after being dissed and taking “matters into his own hands,” TMZ reported Friday.
Multiple sources told the outlet the Federal Correctional Institution Fort Dix prisoners scuffled and pushed each other.
Combs, 56, “held his own” during the incident, one insider alleged.
Staff members at the New Jersey prison subsequently separated the men, and Combs was placed in solitary confinement.
It remains unclear whether he is still there — or whether the fight will affect his release date.
Combs, notably, was sentenced to 50 months for two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution in October 2025, and was transferred from Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center to the FCI.
His initial May 8, 2028, release date was pushed back in November 2025 after he allegedly violated multiple prison rules.
However, the date was subsequently moved up and was set at Feb. 23, 2028, as of last month.
Combs’ rep has yet to comment on the brawl.
On Friday, an FCI Fort Dix rep told TMZ, “We are not at liberty to disclose or provide internal information pertaining to any inmate in our custody. Such information would not be available for the public domain.”
As for the Federal Bureau of Prisons, the organization would not comment on “disciplinary matters, or other information regarding individual inmates due to privacy, safety and security concerns.”
Combs’ legal troubles began in March 2024 when his Los Angeles and Miami homes were raided.
He was arrested in New York City six months later and charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution.
The Grammy winner was acquitted of the more serious charges in July 2025.
He has continued to appeal the decision, with his team most recently claiming his infamous freak-off tapes were examples of amateur pornography and not sex crimes.
Assistant US Attorney Christy Slavik called the April argument “meritless” at the time as another appellate judge admitted to being “lost.”
