The original story broke on Monday when TMZ posted the three-minute video, which featured no audio. According to TMZ, the security footage was recorded last week.

The video appears to show Solange attacking Jay Z, with Beyonce present as well. The performers were wearing the same outfits they wore to the Met Gala last week. On Wednesday, the hotel said it was “shocked and disappointed,” and would turn over all information to criminal authorities.
