Video After The Jump
Indiana rapper Freddie Gibbs avoided injury early Tuesday morning, November 4, after a gunman opened fire on him and his crew. Unfortunately, two members of his entourage weren't so lucky.
According to the New York Post, one person was shot in the hand. The other suffered a gunshot wound to the leg. Both are currently in stable condition at Bellevue Hospital.
“They tried to kill Tupac. They tried to kill me,” Gibbs told The Post outside the club. “I’m still alive.”
The incident occurred at 1:13 a.m. following a performance by Gibbs at Rough Trade. Gibbs was sitting inside a black GMC Denali when shots erupted.
Investigators told Gibbs the gunman could be seen on surveillance footage stalking him inside Rough Trade.
“He [the shooter] was standing around you guys all night,” an investigator told Gibbs. “He was stalking you guys. We can tell on camera, he wanted it to look like he knew you, but it’s clear he didn’t. When you guys left, he was waiting for you outside.”
The rapper later posted messages on Twitter and Instagram indicating he was OK.
