American rapper, Cardi B canceled a performance in Indianapolis on Tuesday out of safety reasons.

“This evening, there was a scheduled concert at Bankers Life,” tweeted the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department. “We were notified of an unverified threat to the artist and the artist canceled this evening’s concert – there is no immediate threat to public safety, this not an active incident. Ongoing investigation #IMPDNow.”
The venue confirmed the cancelation on Twitter and announced a rescheduled date of Sept. 11. All tickets for the original date will be honored.
