A shooting outside a Los Angeles recording
studio left one man dead and two injured Sunday night, according to police.
Dwayne "Draws" Dupree, 23, was pronounced
dead at the scene from gunshot wound to the torso, said April Archer, a
Los Angeles Police spokeswoman.
Long Beach native Delmar "Daz" Arnaud and
Ricardo "Kurupt" Brown, of the group The Dogg Pound, were at the scene
but escaped unharmed, sources said.
The incident occurred at 11:40 p.m. after
several people had gathered outside the Echo Sound Recording Studio in
the 2900 block of Los Feliz Boulevard, just north of downtown.
"It appears the victims were (mingling)
outside the studio when they were confronted by two armed suspects, who
opened fire without warning or provocation," Archer said.
Death Row Records recording artist Jevon
Jones, known as "The Realest," was hit in the foot.
Another hip-hop artist, Willard "Act Da
Fool" Givens was hit in the leg.
Both were taken to a local hospital for
treatment and released, Archer said. |
