ATLANTA (AP) – Prosecutors said rapper Gucci Mane pleaded guilty to aggravated assault for attacking a fan at an Atlanta nightclub.

Fulton County District Attorney’s spokeswoman Yvette Jones said the 34-year-old rapper, whose real name is Radric Davis, pleaded guilty Monday to hitting a man in the head with a vodka bottle March 16, 2013, in a nightclub’s VIP section.

Authorities said the man approached Davis and was looking to have his picture taken with him. Prosecutors said the fan was an Army staff sergeant in town on a brief military leave.

Authorities said the man suffered a deep cut that required 10 stitches.

Jones said Davis’ three-year sentence will be served concurrently with a 39-month federal firearms sentence he was given in late August.
