A shooting in New York City’s Irving Plaza has left one dead and two injured during a concert hosted by rapper T.I
NYPD have confirmed that three people were shot at a T.I concert in New York City last night. One 33-year old male was fatally shot in the chest, a female victim was shot in the leg and rapper Troy Ave was also grazed and injured by a stray bullet.
CBS New York have reported that shots were fired around 10:15 p.m local time and were sparked by a backstage quarrel before the show was due to begin and before T.I. had come onstage. Anderson .Paak, Maino, Uncle Murda, and more were also due to perform at the gig.
We’ll update this story as more information becomes available.
