NEW YORK, Sept. 13 (UPI) -- New Jersey hip-hop artist Remy Ma has been hit with witness-tampering and gang-assault charges connected to her alleged participation in a recent shooting.

Remy Ma, whose real name is Remy Smith, was already facing up to 25 years in jail on charges she shot a female friend in the stomach during a dispute over some missing cash.

However, Manhattan prosecutors Wednesday told a judge the rapper also tried to silence one of the key witnesses during an altercation at a Bronx nightclub last month, the New York Post reported Thursday.

Prosecutors said that in addition to berating the witness’ boyfriend, Smith sent her own boyfriend and his friends to intimidate him.

When the witness’ boyfriend tried to seek help from security, he was jumped by the posse of Smith’s boyfriend and left with a fractured face.

A friend’s jaw was broken so badly in the melee that his mouth will be wired shut for months, the Post noted.

Prosecutors described the confrontation to Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Rena Uviller in hopes she would find the new allegations serious enough to increase Smith’s bail, which is already $250,000.

The judge delayed a bail decision until next Thursday.
