GARDEN CITY, NY --
Rapper 50 Cent says he’s been told he is not a suspect in a 2008 fire that destroyed his New York mansion.
But Detective Thomas Wieland of the Suffolk County police said Thursday that the fire is still under investigation and no one has been cleared.
It has yet to be determined what caused the $1.4 million Long Island mansion to go up in flames on May 30, 2008.
The rapper made his statement on the entertainment blog Thisis50.com.
The rapper’s ex-girlfriend and their 10-year-old son were among six people who escaped the blaze by jumping off a roof.
She blamed the rapper, but he says he was in Louisiana filming a movie at the time.
