The 'Trap Queen' hitmaker, who is still recovering in hospital following the incident, has been cited with three tickets by police officers in Paterson, New Jersey, reports the New York Daily News.

Paterson police chief Jerry Speziale says the rapper was given summons for driving without a licence, driving without insurance and for failing to provide a valid registration card.

Fetty - real name Willie Maxwell - was rushed to hospital after he collided with a car while riding a motorcycle on Saturday afternoon.

The 25-year-old star had only just released his debut self-titled album last week and was due to begin a tour next week.

His pal Chris Brown is said to have been ''devastated'' by the news of his injury.

A source told HollywoodLife.com: ''Chris can't believe what he's seeing online. Fetty is his boy, and seeing him all beat up and bruised is devastating to him. Damn. They were just touring together and Chris is beside himself.

''He can't believe this is happening. He's called Fetty's people to see if this actually happened and if it did that he's all right. This is bad news, but Chris hopes everything will be fine.''
