Bun B tweeted “RIP Dinky D and Poppa c.” Slim Thug later added, “Im just waking up hearing all this, we was all together yesterday prayers out to the whole #ABN I can’t believe Dinky died #RIPDinky”
This morning's deaths come just six months after the murder of Trae's close friend Money Clip D who was shot outside of Breakers nightclub on Bissonet in Houston.
MyFoxHouston is reporting that a woman that knew one of this morning's victim's said "that it was clear to her someone was going after Trae Tha Truth and anyone associated with him."
Trae's spokeswoman Tiffany, who identified herself as the community outreach director for Angels by Nature, Trae's non-profit organization. denied that account however.
"Oh, no, he wasn't a target. He definitely wasn't a target," said Tiffany. "He just happened to be coming outside. He was taking pictures and signing autographs and kind of just got caught in the crossfire."
Story still developing.
