Although emergency medical aid was provided at the scene, Slim 400 ultimately died from his injuries at a local hospital. The incident is currently under investigation, and homicide detectives are actively gathering evidence and seeking witnesses to the killing.
Meanwhile, a LAPD detective is warning tourists to stay out of Los Angeles, comparing the city to a scene from The Purge. Jamie McBride, the director of the Los Angeles Police Protective League, told FOX News he’s telling people “don’t visit because we don’t think we can keep you safe right now.”
When comparing Los Angeles to the 2013 horror film, he said, “Instead of 24 hours to commit your crime, they have 365 days.”
Fellow Los Angeles rappers G Perico and The Game echoed McBride’s sentiments on social media, and suggested the City of Angels has been growing increasingly violent.
“It’s all bad out here rn,” The Game wrote on Instagram. “Seem like every other day somebody passing away. Last time I saw you tho blood, it was love as usual ru. Rest easy pfonk @slim400blk.”
G Perico added, “Don’t come to LA” on Twitter. Check out their posts below.
Yeah ok…
Yeah right. Like he ever was keeping anybody safe. They just said officers were patrolling in the area, and he still got it. What kind of fear mongering bullshit is this?
young black men are killing more black people than police ever will (or did) by 1000’s of % but aint no one talkin bout dat
Take some more calls.
Literally everyone is talking about it. Doesn’t excuse unlawful murders by police though so what’s your point here??
You do know that almost twice the amount of white men are killed by police annualy, right?
Hear is my word to you out of 900,000 police officers in the US less than 1% of them has killed black men. This is between the yrs of 2000-21 but in the black race we are killing one another at an alarming race but don’t want to admit Are issues

It’s all bad out here rn,” The Game wrote on Instagram.
some brothers might want to get together and look out for their own hood. if the police can’t do it why not the street gangs around la. just a thought.
More lawlessness will not solve a damn thing… Gangs just go and kill each other and make things worse. Evidently as the revolving door continues to spin. Gangs are nothing more then a form of genocide used by the very racist individuals whom create this mayhem.
Man, what dey talkin bout, “don’t go to LA!?” LA is one of da safest places you can kick it at. No need investigate homeboi situation. Dis wat keepin it gangsta get you. Real G’s don’t run to feds anyway!
