Rap mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs was moved from a New Jersey prison to one in Pennsylvania, the Federal Bureau of Prisons said Friday.

Combs was transferred from New Jersey's Fort Dix to FCI Allenwood Low in Pennsylvania, the bureau confirmed.

The Bureau of Prisons said in a statement, "We can confirm that Sean Combs is currently incarcerated at FCI Allenwood Low. For privacy, safety, and security reasons, we do not discuss the conditions of confinement for any individual in our custody, including reasons for transfer."

The statement continued, "Sean remains focused on moving forward, and we hope that his time at the new facility will be productive and without unnecessary disruption."

Combs was briefly hospitalized last weekend

Combs was taken to the hospital briefly for a head injury over the weekend, according to multiple sources familiar with the situation.

He returned to prison early Sunday morning after being taken to the hospital on Saturday.

The Bureau of Prisons declined to comment on the incident for safety and security reasons.

"We are aware of the reports concerning Sean Combs and are working to confirm the circumstances," Combs' representative told ABC News when reports of his hospitalization surfaced. "Sean's health and well-being are our immediate concern, and we appreciate everyone who has reached out."
