The hip-hop community recently lost another star, Lotta Cash Desto, who was shot dead on 5500 Richmond Eve on September 24.
The rapper was in a Porsche SUV with another individual at the time of the attack, at 2:30 am. When cops arrived on the spot, they discovered two women with gunshot wounds inside the SUV. The individual accompanying the rapper was admitted to the hospital.
A male victim, who was also injured in the shooting, was reportedly discovered at the same spot and transported to a medical facility in another vehicle. According to the Houston Police Department, the victims seemed to be in their early 20s and were expected to survive considering their non-life-threatening injuries.
The SUV was shot in both directions, and HPD Assistant Chief Wyatt Martin reported the same day that they had no information about the motive at the time and that it might be a road rage case.
Martin added:
"It could have been robbery. We just don't know, and we don't have enough information at this time to make a determination."
Police officials have not arrested anyone so far and are currently questioning witnesses.
