Actor Chris Massey has reportedly sued rapper Lil Twist for assaulting him last November at his brother’s apartment.

TMZ reports that the 25-year-old former Zoey 101 star explained the details of the assault in his lawsuit.

“[Chris] Massey says Twist and four of his friends came into his brother Kyle Massey’s apartment last November without permission, and began to punch, beat, kick, push and choke him.”

The report further claims that Lil Twist and his friends used a screwdriver and brass knuckles during the brutal attack.

As a result of the assault, Chris Massey states in the lawsuit that he suffered numerous injuries — including multiple cuts and bruises. Massey reportedly had to get stitches placed over his eye. Massey also claims that his Rolex was stolen by Lil Twist’s crew on the same day of the attack.

As previously reported by the Inquisitr, Chris Massey was assaulted by Lil Twist and several of his friends on the afternoon of Friday, November 7. Reports claim that Lil Twist and his friends attacked Chris Massey after an argument broke out between them. Once they were finished attacking Massey, they reportedly pull his pants off in front of everyone in attendance to embarrass him.

A police report was filed shortly after the assault and Chris Massey sought medical attention for his injuries.

Shortly after the news of the attack was reported, the Massey family issued an official statement in reference to the assault, which also addressed how they decided to handle it.

“We want everyone to know that Christopher is fine and he was defending himself after Twist and four unknown suspects broke into Kyle & Christopher’s penthouse and robbed and assaulted him. Christopher is doing well and did get medical attention as reported, but has no physical concerns especially with the severity of the altercation. The police are still looking for the four accomplices. We plan to legally pursue this to the full extent of the law.”

Christopher Lynn Moore (Lil Twist), 22, was reportedly charged with six felonies in March because of the attack by the L.A. County District Attorney, including criminal threats, grand theft, burglary, battery along with two separate counts of assault with a deadly weapon.

If he is convicted on all six counts, Lil Twist could face up to 25 years in prison.

Chris Massey is perhaps best known for playing Michael Barrett in the hit Nickelodeon television series, Zoey 101 starring Jamie-Lynn Spears. Rapper Lil Twist signed to Lil Wayne’s Young Money label when he was just 16-years-old.
