NEW YORK (AP) — One person was killed and three others wounded in a shooting inside a concert venue in New York City, where hip-hop artist T.I. was scheduled to perform, police said.
It happened around 10:15 p.m. Wednesday at Irving Plaza, near Manhattan's Union Square.
Police said a 34-year-old man was shot in the chest and a 33-year-old man was shot in the stomach. One of the men later died at a hospital, police did not say which one. A 26-year-old woman was shot in the leg. Police said a fourth person walked into a hospital on their own.
Elijah Rodriguez was attending the concert with his sister and they were in the VIP area by the stage. He said TI was supposed to go on stage at 9 or 9:30 p.m. but "he never showed up." At or around 10 p.m. he said the venue started playing music again, and at about 10:15 p.m., he saw a line of people coming out from where the performers were coming onstage.
"All the sudden I heard someone saying that there was a shot, that someone got shot," Rodriguez said.

That rapper was named Puff Daddy.
And now you know the rest.........of the story.

Rapper arrested for shooting.

A rapper who police say was seen on surveillance footage firing a gun in a packed hip-hop concert where artist T.I. was set to perform was arrested Thursday on attempted murder and other charges.
Four people were shot, one fatally, when a fight that started in a performers' lounge of a Manhattan concert hall spilled into a second-floor balcony VIP area Wednesday night.
Roland Collins, who goes by the stage name Troy Ave and was shot in the leg, was arrested on attempted murder and weapons charges, a police spokesman said.
The shooting occurred shortly after rapper Maino entered the VIP area following a performance onstage with artist Uncle Murda, though investigators don't know whether the rappers played any role in the shooting, Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce said.
An 8-second video clip released by police shows the gunman, who police identified as Collins, bursting through the door of a VIP room in apparent pursuit of another man, who flees off-screen. As concertgoers huddle under a counter and clutch each other, the gunman, who appears to be limping, stops and scans the room for a moment with his eyes. Then, he spots something, raises his gun and fires.

And another reason my white arse will never go to a rap concert, besides the shitty music.

How? Guns are illegal in NYC? Seriously though how are rap concerts still around in certain areas when shite like this always happens? The people who get shot need to be allowed to sue the venue, artists and promoters for everything they have because everyone knows things like this happen when certain artists go to certain areas. People think rap is cool but it glorifies violence and a certain segment of society thinks that is cool, I am all for free speech but it is destroying an entire generation of that segment of society....
