Rapper PnB Rock was reportedly shot while he was dining at a restaurant under the Roscoe’s House of Chicken ‘N Waffles umbrella in LA this Monday.
The Philadelphia-born musician, 30, whose given name is Rakim Allen, was out eating with his girlfriend, who posted a picture of their meal online to her Instagram account. The photo in question was location-tagged, and has since been deleted.
LAPD said they received a call regarding the shooting at 1:23 p.m. at West Manchester Avenue and South Maine Street.
Video that was posted to social media shows that when first responders arrived, Allen was still moving visibly, but also that there was a pool of blood around him. He was taken to a hospital at the nearest location.
It appears no other diners were injured, and TMZ reported that the suspect got away after nabbing some of Allen’s jewelry.
As of this writing, there has been no description provided of the suspect, although the LAPD has confirmed that the person who was shot—and whose identity has not been released—succumbed to his injuries.
