After robbing the rapper and making off with jewellery and other valuables, the shooter fled in a vehicle, though it was not clear whether the person was behind the wheel.
On Wednesday, police confirmed to the Los Angeles Times that two people, a teenage boy and a woman, were arrested in connection with the killing, and that they are searching for a third suspect identified as the boy’s father.
