Sas, who is a recurrent character on VH1's "Love and Hip Hop Atlanta," reported on Instagram that he was shot in the back of the head but is recuperating.

He was in Scottsdale, Ariz. at a party, according to TMZ. After the cops broke it up for being too crowded, he was shot at while in a car and hit by a bullet in the skull. Amazingly, he's okay.

"The doctor just told me I got a bullet in the back of my head, man," Sas said in the video. "He said I'm gonna be alright though. He said I got a thick skull."

He's been a bit player on "Love and Hip Hop Atlanta," the brother of the much more notable Scrapp de Leon, who received much more airtime this current season before he was sent off to prison for five years for marijuana trafficking.
