DIX HILLS, New York (AP) -- A multimillion-dollar home at the center of a bitter dispute between 50 Cent and the mother of his son was destroyed by a suspicious fire early Friday. Six people, including 50's ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins and their 10-year-old son, Marquise, were taken to a hospital after suffering smoke inhalation and later released. A firefighter also suffered a minor eye injury, officials said. 50, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, doesn't live in the home and wasn't there at the time. "Informed this morning while filming a new motion picture on location in Louisiana, Curtis Jackson expressed deep concern over this fire at his property," a representative for 50 said in a statement. "He is extremely thankful that everyone including his son, Marquise, escaped the burning house safely. He is confident that authorities will be conducting a thorough investigation of the incident and is eager to review their findings." The home was essentially burned to the ground, with charred embers and wreckage littering the lot where the home once stood in the tree-lined neighborhood in Dix Hills. Investigators from the Suffolk County arson squad were called to the scene after Dix Hills Fire Chief Larry Feld deemed the blaze suspicious. The fire was reported at 4:59 a.m. and was extinguished about 45 minutes later, Feld said. The arson squad had finished its work at the scene six hours after the blaze. He referred the case to the arson squad "because of the intensity of the fire, and also being that who belongs to the house." Police said the victims included the rapper's former girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins and two of her children, including a son fathered by 50 Cent named Marquise. Three other adults in the home weren't immediately identified. A passing off-duty police officer helped rescue the six people off an elevated deck in the home's backyard, Feld said. The home has been the subject of an intense feud between 50 and Tompkins. Tompkins filed a lawsuit against 50 earlier this year claiming he had promised her a house more than a decade ago, but that since their breakup, he now wants to evict her and their 10-year-old son from the home. Tompkins' lawyer, Paul Catsandonis, told The Associated Press in a telephone interview that the dispute over the house had become "extremely, extremely contentious" in recent days. Although he declined to be specific, he said there was an "extremely dangerous incident" Monday in his Manhattan office while taking a deposition for the lawsuit. The dispute was "involving the parties in question," he said. He said the case was back on the calendar in state Supreme Court in Manhattan on June 10. Catsandonis said the 31-year-old rapper paid about $2.4 million for the house last year, one of the largest in the Long Island neighborhood of Dix Hills. He said 50, who grew up surrounded by violence and was once shot outside his grandmother's Queens home in 2000, had told the 32-year-old Tompkins that he wanted her and their son to live in a safe and secure place. He also contended the rapper signed an agreement that would give Tompkins half of all his earnings as a hip-hop superstar. "Everything that's his is hers, everything that's hers is his. He memorialized in an e-mail that he intended to give her the house." 50 has been nominated for 13 Grammys, including nominations for the song "In da Club" and the album "Get Rich or Die Tryin'." In 2005, he starred with Terrence Howard in a semi-autobiographical movie based on that album www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/Music/05/31/fiftycent.housefire.ap/index.html

My thought exactly............something about that don't sound right.
The same house they are fighting over "suspiciously" burns to the ground?

one of three adults that lived there is Shaniqua's BOYFRIEND...so there's motive right there...
HOWEVER...I dont see 50 jeopardizing Marquise's life...50 is a LOT of things,but I dont think he would risk his only child's life...
another motive: Shaniqua's child support demands were reduced recently...hmmm
we need a Law & Order Episode on this...

^ That's true!
50 was giving her $25K a MONTH and this selfish chick asks for MORE! The judge asked her why she would need more and she couldn't explain why so the judge decreased it drastically.
The reason she got kicked out the house was bcuz 50 found out that her BOYFRIEND was living there when that house was for his son and her. She overstepped her bounderies if you ask me.

It's not funny, but it's HILARIOUS!!!!!!
50 gave her a house, and is giving her tens of thousands of dollars a month and she has ANOTHER dude living there!!! Dumb ho!
Maybe if she had bought her own house, the judge would have let her get the $25K/month!
I ain't saying he shoulda burnt it down, but I understand.

Yeah she wasn't smart about this at all. This morning they said it was just the kid and her in the house sleep. I also dont think 50 would risk his child to get back at her. Sad, Sad, Sad! I wonder what she is doing with the money he gives her. Is she using it to support her life or the child?

I don't know any "self respecting" man who would live under another mans roof while he's still footing the bills. Before she moved in the D I _ K She shoulda worked that 25 provided by 50 well enough to become: (sing along if ya know the words) "I N D E P E N D E N T, do ya know that that means??"

If your daddy divorces your mother and has to pay her child support, what business is it of yours who she shacks up with. You should have made a committment to her and your child. Aside from the fact that the man is a positive influence on your son, who cares who paid for the house. I know a brother right now who handles his biz on a daily and moved with his woman and "HER" child. He could easily have his own home, but she has one allready, courtesy of the ex-husband who bailed out. GROW UP.

It's HIS BUSINESS if that BROKE ARSE NEGRO is sitting on his ARSE not doing shit.
He was LIVING off of 50. Miss me with that it's none of his business shit. If HE paid for the house, that's HIS house, she is just living there.
She's a dumb bitch period. Had she not been so greedy and kept asking for MORE MONEY for the child support, maybe she would STILL be getting $25K, instead of $3000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Case and point, she's a fucking IDIOT! End of story.

Some website is reporting that they found a gas can at the home of 50 cent and how he threaten Shaniqua (his child's mother). Investigators said that if either one of them were involved in the fire that they face jail time

I don't know about other guys on the board but I am an avid advocate of child support. Too often men and women get caught fuvking out of both draw legs and the paternal parent leaves...simply because he can.
Having said that....if I am VOLUNTARILY giving you $25k a month AND you are living in a $2.5million house that I provide...you can miss me with that "momma needs Dick too" bullchyt. I feel what you're saying and in theory you are right but in REALITY....that's some bullchyt!!
On $25k a month...git cho own shyt! If you want to lay up with anotha grown assed man in the house that I provide...eating good off the income that I provide...and then sit up in court asking the judge to make ME give YOU (not the child) more money all while that niqqas skeet is still seeping out of your skank ass...FVCK that!
As I said in the beginning of this post, I am ALL FOR CHILD SUPPORT. And if you are a rich dude then your support is going to be much higher. Cool. But I can't stand greedy bitches.
Man...I miss Damie on this conversation. LOL!!
