MIST, real name Rhys Thomas Sylvester, was driven to Faro Hospital in a white Mercedes by two friends after being shot in the leg at the prestigious Quinta do Lago resort.
The 'So High' rapper's friends - a man and a woman - told police that he was shot at around 10pm last night during an alleged robbery committed by "two or three men with an Irish accent" inside the rented villa.
The report states that heavily-armed officers from two police forces, the GNR and PJ, entered the villa and "forced entry" to make sure the suspected robbers were not still present.
MIST's condition is currently unknown, as both hospital officials and police have yet to release about information.
