Three people were injured during the incident, including rapper Troy Ave, who was shot in the leg. Troy's friend Ronald McPhatter was killed.

Tax was also wanted on a federal warrant charging him with being a felon in possession of firearm.
Troy Ave
Troy, real name Roland Collins, was arrested after the shooting and charged with attempted murder and two counts of criminal possession of a weapon, after surveillance video emerged showing him firing a gun inside the venue.
He pleaded not guilty and is currently free after posting $500,000 bond.
As we previously reported, Troy was allegedly approached backstage by someone he had beef with and a fight ensued. A scuffle over a gun resulted in the shooting injuries and McPhatter's death.
Troy survived another attempt on his life on December 25, 2016, when a gunman walked up and opened fire on his Maserati while it was stopped at a traffic light in Brooklyn.

Doctors plan to remove them at a later date.
No arrests have been made in connection with that shooting.
