Shooting at rapper Boosie Badazz’s concert leaves two fans critically injured (Video)

American rapper, Boosie Badazz’s concert in Akron, Ohio, has left two critically injured after shots were fired while the star was on stage.

The incident took place at the FieldHouse Lounge on Monday, where ‘a fight broke out, and an unidentified male suspect fired multiple shots, striking the victims. The suspect fled the scene following the shooting, according to WKYC. 

Two men – ages 18 and 36 – had ‘apparent’ gunshot wounds and were transported to a local hospital in ‘critical condition,’ per Cleveland 19 News. 

A 25-year-old man also arrived at a nearby emergency room with a ‘graze gunshot injury.’

The reported shooting took place around 2:00am local time, and a call for help was placed by two off-duty officers who were acting as security at the venue. 

Video shared on X captured the moment as a fan filmed Boosie Badazz performing on stage surrounded by other attendees before gunshots were heard around the lounge. 

The performer could be seen taking cover as he backed away from the main stage. 

Akron PD Deputy Chief Michael Miller also informed TMZ Hip Hop that one shot had been fired when the rapper was on the stage. 

The gunman may have entered the lounge through a ‘blind spot’ or second door because there was security at the front, as well as scanners. 
The suspect – who has also been identified as male – left the venue on foot, and the motive is currently not known. 

The recent incident comes seven months after two persons were killed at the rapper’s past performance.
