Blac Youngsta is reportedly in police custody, after surrendering himself as part of the investigation over a shooting targeting rapper Young Dolph.
According to TMZ, warrants for arrest were issued for Youngsta and two other unnamed men in Charlotte, which led to the surrender. The shooting, which took place in late February of this year, led to as many as 100 shots being fired in Young Dolph’s direction while he was on his way to a concert. No injuries were sustained during the shooting, according to local reports from the scene, and Dolph later performed at the Cameo Charlotte nightclub that evening.
Detectives with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department told FOX13 that multiple apartment units and vehicles were struck in the shooting.
23-year-old Frederick Black and 20-year-old Antavius Gardner have also been charged. The men turned themselves in at the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office on Tuesday.
Youngsta and Dolph have a history together. Yo Gotti‘s associate Youngsta reportedly showed up in Dolph’s neighborhood with weapons in March 2016 after the two exchanged and heated words between their respective crews on social media and on record previously. Youngsta mocked Dolph by name on the song “Shake Sum” for being a transplant from Chicago, shortly after Dolph claimed he slept with the mother of Yo Gotti’s child.
During an interview with TMZ, Dolph raised suspicion after speaking about his relationship with Youngsta.
“He doesn’t know me, I don’t know him,” said Dolph. “That whole situation is see through, just like the windshield. You know who got a problem with Dolph over there… I could make somebody go to any neighborhood I want to, there’s some people you just don’t play with, there’s some people you just don’t try.”
All three suspects have each been charged with six counts of discharging a weapon into occupied property and felony conspiracy.
This is an ongoing investigation.
