Police: Slain Baltimore rapper’s manager fatally shot

BALTIMORE (AP) — The manager of a young Baltimore rapper gunned down after an anti-violence fundraiser was himself fatally shot less than two weeks later, police said Thursday.

Trayvon Lee, 24, was killed near his home Wednesday evening in what police described as a second “targeted attack.”

Lee, the CEO of YBS records, managed the career of Tyriece “Lor Scoota” Watson, a rising star who was shot in broad daylight on June 25 as he was leaving a “Pray for Peace in These Streets” charity basketball game at Morgan State University.

Police Spokesman T.J. Smith said Watson was shot and killed in response to a non-fatal shooting perpetrated by one of his friends or associates. He said he couldn’t provide details, nor could police “definitively draw a line between yesterday’s murder and Lor Scoota’s murder.”

Can't blame the police for the society that the government won't deal with properly.

Blacks are perfectly okay with a black on black murder. The only deaths that matter to them is when they can make an excuse to become violent themselves.
