Nipsey Hussle’s funeral was held at the Los Angeles Staples Center on Thursday (April 11). A procession followed the service, but it wasn’t without violence. According to a tweet from LAPD Police Chief Michel Moore, one person was killed and three others were injured in a shooting that took place as the procession paraded through the streets of L.A.
Moore reports the suspects were driving a gray Hyundai.
“In the midst of this procession we have a multi-4 Shooting at 103 St and Main St.,” he wrote. “Victims are 3 Male Blacks and 1 Female Black – ages from 30-50 years old. Tragically one is deceased. Suspects in gray Hyundai fired on the victims. We must stop this senseless violence.”
Hussle was gunned down on March 31 after alleged killer Eric Holder shot him at least six times as he stood outside of his Marathon Clothing store.
The day after the celebrated Hip Hop artist’s death, countless people gathered at the intersection of Slauson and Crenshaw where the murder occurred. The crowd started to quickly disperse after they heard what sounded like gunshots.
Although there were initially conflicting reports, LAPD later confirmed two people were shot during the melee. A search warrant obtained by TMZ showed one person was hit in the elbow while another was shot in the lower back/buttocks.
Holder was arrested on April 2 and has since pleaded not guilty to the murder. He’s currently being held on a $5 million bond.
It was after the procession had left Watts, not during. Not connected to the memorial. Lets not ruin the moment. Thank you.
Exactly, a shooting in Watts happens almost daily.
But it’s all a part of the same problem. From Nipsey dying for no good reason, to the daily shootings- whether it happened during, or after the procession. There needs to be some real self reflection going on in the communities that keep killing themselves. Sometimes we’re our own worst enemy.
“Four people were shot in Watts on Thursday evening after the funeral procession for Nipsey Hussle…” Straight from Los Angeles Times. Please lets not ruin the moment. The live feed from ABC filmed the entire procession as it made its way through Watts.
I will find a way to blame white people for this!
Murica!!!!
i think its becoming abit obvious now that holder wasn’t a snitch and the streets aint fuckin with nipsey like that, nipsey probably was the snitch. The only reason dudes think these rappers is gangsta is because the industry pretends they are
Says the 12 kid from the suburbs.
NOPE THIS IS BIG TIME SHIT. SOMEONE IN THE HIGH REACHES OF POWER WANTED NIPSEY DEAD. THIS IS LIKE 2PAC, B.I.G., JAM MASTER JAY, OL’DIRTY BASTARD… THEY WERE ALL KILLED BY PEOPLE IN THE HIGHEST ECHELONS OF POWER. R.I.P. NIPSEY WE WILL GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS MY BROTHER.
I AM NOT AFRAID TO SAY I HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECEIVING DEATH THREATS BECAUSE OF WHAT I KNOW AND WHAT I WILL SAY. THIS ISN’T ALL IT SEEMS. WE GOT TO STOP BEING AFRAID BY THOSE WHO WANT US TO BE AFRAID. OH I AM NOT AFRAID OF THESE POWERS. END THE SILENCE LETS KNOW WHAT REALLY HAPPENED TO NIPSEY IT IS TOO DAMN WRONG.
I at least understand the logic behind a hidden ruling class wanting 2pac dead because he was a disruptor of the status quo, and how they would kill biggie to make it look like a east coast / West coast beef. I don’t believe it personally, but the conspiracy theory makes sense. But why tf would they want JMJ or ODB dead? What is the logic behind that?
i am an insider. a fucking Gambino got done the other day.
2pac would only have the power he had as he was allowed, he was no threat. and what is that shit about him living in refuge in mexico? Malaysia? nah don’t think so. if powers-that-be wanted him dead there wouldn’t be these silly rumours. it wasn’t as if he thought of himself as a god when he is really an international terrorist or, just plain evil. Rupert Murdoch did it I know he did.
ODB for one, talked alot of stuff. Go & check the interview with him & meth. Method man was like I love u cia.
Here we go again ….. nothing changes
Did anyone really expect anything less? I would have bet everything I own that there would be an incident.
They’re reporting a shooting not even connected to the funeral. Typical white man shit. They’re all on this hip hop site making comments, which I find NOT odd. They love us blacks!
A lot bullshit for a wack ass gang banging rapper.
The powers that be that promoting this man as some divine being when all he did was buy store fronts and some property like normal ppl do everyday will perish in hell for their blasphemous agenda. Bible say Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you when you are in trouble! …..You sheep will follow anyone and anything even if leads you to hell.
ppl so quick to label their opinion on shit they have limited or no information on at all. You’re the sheep dummy
Those who oppose Gods law come forth
smh this is actually why Nipsey got shot. we hate on our culture instead of uplift. you clearly hating on the love Nipsey is getting after death and trying to spin it like we worship him. we just honoring a fallen soldier, sad you can’t see that.
All lives matter. Just not to each other apparently. Being black and from Chicago I see firsthand that we are the only ones killing ourselves daily, not whites. Also, whites aren’t the ones that enslaved us it was our own people that did that to us. African warlords sold us to the whites and Spanish. These are hard honest facts we all have to learn to live and deal with
I hear it was the Ku Klux Klan who shot the place up smh

Hey look! It’s a self-denigrating black man! Way to crap on your own culture. The fact that you are black and from Chicago doesn’t mean jack, other than you are black and from Chicago – if anything, that means you probably don’t know much other than the hood you grew up in… I didn’t realize Dylan Roof, Jason van Dyke, Michael Slager, George Zimmerman, etc. etc. are all black men!? Or how about the white guy burning black churches in the South, maybe I just can’t tell the difference between black and white skin. Finally, the idea that whites didn’t enslave blacks is pretty hilarious – you must be one sorry ass individual, Trump 2020 amiright? If you don’t have a market unless you have a customer, who was the customer of those african warlords? Were they purchasing slaves to give them freedom or to continue their enslavement? Hmmmm. So complicated!
Ricky is speaking truth. You dont need to fill up the post with counter attacks. Super obvious either on the news or YouTube that blacks have a heavy culture on jungle warfare. All races kill, we know that, but black ppl shoot up each other a WHOLE lot more than everyone else.
So now we are going to give Spaniards and whites a pass for torturing, brainwashing, manipulating, killing, and using millions of black slaves to help build this country? You Ricky, and the other pathetic intellectually incompetent clowns who believe this need to die in a fire asap. Fucking retarded seriously.
Well, we also give blacks (Egyptians) a pass for using the He tees for building the pyramids, and the corner stones of civilization. We then give the Hebrews a pass for using Christians as slaves and throwing them to the lions. The Hebrews were later used as slaves and thrown to the lions by the Christians. No one in America’s grandparents were slaves. Facts. There has been at least 4 generations of freedom. How long is that excuse a crutch? The last countries to openly have slavery were in the African continent buddy. Maybe study up and stop regurgitating bullshit. Slavery was commonplace across all cultures and skin colors. Rome, Cairo and Athens (the birth places of modern civilization) were all built by slaves. Some people just love to keep that memory alive. You realize that most capitols in africa were built by slaves? You’re ignorance helps justify young blacks killing each other and flooding the prison systems. Modern slavery. The new slaves just have to eat their meals, flush toilets and have the prison lights go on and off for master to get paid. That master is corporate, a mixture of all races, sexual orientations and religions. Jackass.
You are either a bigoted white abject moron or a uncle tom tiger woods black douche. You fail to mention all the WHITES who do mass shootings commiting acts of domestic terrorism. Typical keyboard bigot on a hip hop website.
The definition of a serial killer is someone who kills more than two people on different occasions. The largest concentration of serial killers in the US is in a few square block radius in Southside Chicago. Moron. He said mass shootings. All of the mass shootings combined in the ladybugs 10 years is equal to 2 years of shooting in CHI. Idiot.
RICKY IS WHITE
Your pretty ignorant. But I’n willing to bet you’re bit actually black OR from Chicago. That’s not to say that there aren’t a lot of self hating, uncle Tom’s spewing this revisionist slavery nonsense, ala Lanye West. But when you cherry pick commonly known facts about slavery, like black folks sold other blacks folks[duh), without proper context, then that lets me know you have an agenda. Im actually from Chicago (Southside/Kenwood area), and I absolutely agree that brothers killing brothers is the number one problem in our community. Not just in Chicago, but in Philly, L.A, Tje Congo, Uganda etc. What do all those areas have in common? Generations of abject poverty and communities who still suffer the consequences of being exploited by colonizers or slave masters
Hahaha. Generations still being exploited by colonization? The Hebrews that were thrown in concentration camps in WWII are all prospering now. That happened WAY after slavery was abolished. They have a culture of studying, learning languages, opening businesses and keeping their families TOGETHER. LoL. You’re another Dindu excuse making, welfare, affirmative action, victim jackass. And yes, I do want fries with my burger there, impressed guy. I think that dude named Obama from Chicago did OK. Kanye seems to be fine. Moron.
This moron ODB talking about shit from 100 and 200 years ago. LOL. That justifies savagery today? Maybe all the white and Spaniard colonists wouldn’t have dreamt up the notion had the Egyptians not done it 1800 years before them. They were all black but ya the way. I just wanted to clear that up since history isn’t your forte. Since you few free to use 100-200 year old excuses, it’s ok to use 2200 year old ones, right? LOL. The He Rees who were out in concentration camps and eradicated, the survivors are all prospering now. That happened after slavery and colonization. What’s the excuse on that one? LOL. You’re retarded young Dindu.
There is more slavery right now in Africa then EVER in the history of the US.
Also, as soon as some states let them free, many blacks went to states still with slavery and set up their own plantations. Those black slave owners were notoriously brutal. Look it up it’s part of New Orleans history.
How are you upset about gang violence when you’ve spent almost 2 years pretending to be a hardcore gang member on the comment sections? Bra your cosplay story is falling apart
See that’s what I’m talking about you just said blood, last year you were a crip? Maybe you should write down all the traits of your character so you don’t slip up.
Why was this posted? It has nothing to do with Nipseys funeral. The shooting did not happen At the precession so how is it related? This is just an attempt to stir up your illiterate readers who didn’t pick up on this clickbait. Unless this site starts posting an article about every time someone gets SHOT this article is unnecessary. And where was Proof’s article this week? Smfh
Yeah. The LAPD POLICE CHIEF says other wise. He was on the scene. Where were you? Clown.
Plenty of “the white man did it” shit, it wasn’t during the procession etc. the LAPD police chief says it was. I’ll go with his account. 15% of the population is responsible for almost 50% of the homicides. 80% of those are towards other blacks. I don’t believe in the term “black on black” crime. It’s jut crime. The statistics just happen to show that black people shoot other black people, and people in general, way more than anyone else. It’s hilarious how people are still upset at cops for all the rightful shootings (out of all those BLM examples, I can only think of 2 that were actually suspect). Get your shit together black America. No one feels sorry for you. Take responsibility for this bullshit and do something about it already. Anyone who speaks up and tries that’s isn’t black is considered a racist. This is some bullshit.
Shits fucked up i hear wingstops giving out free wings in downtown chicago today wonder how many will be shot only neighborhoods in the country where you can get shot over a chicken wing or a J
IT WAS RUPERT MURDOCH, IT WAS HIM.
NOBODY does it better.
Good to see the #BlackLivesMatter brigade is out there upset over this tragedy.
I thought Holder was on 7 mill bond but they say 5 here.
