According to reports from Cleveland 19, the shooting happened around 2 a.m. while Boosie was in the middle of his set. A fan-captured video has surfaced online, showing Boosie vibing with the crowd seconds before gunfire interrupted the night. Without missing a beat, the Baton Rouge rapper and his team dipped from the stage as chaos erupted in the venue.
Police say a fight broke out in the crowd, escalating into gun violence. Officers responding to the scene found two victims — an 18-year-old and a 36-year-old man — both critically wounded. A third man, 25, later pulled up to a hospital on his own with a graze wound.
As of now, no arrests have been made, and the names of the victims haven’t been released. Authorities are still investigating and urging anyone with footage or information to come forward.
