PnB Rock Fatally Shot In Los Angeles
It’s with a heavy heart that I report PnB Rock was shot and killed inside a Los Angeles Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles on Monday (September 12) afternoon.
The rapper was dining with his girlfriend, Steph, who posted a photo of their meal and their location on social media.
Around 1:30 p.m. PST, police received a call for a shooting victim.
Sources connected to the restaurant told TMZ that it appeared that PNB Rock was targeted by the shooter because no one else was shot or assaulted.
Following the shooting, the suspect snatched PNB’s jewelry and fled the scene.
The rapper was pronounced dead at 1:59 p.m.

Social Media Reacts
The public has taken to social media to react to the news of PnB’s shooting as well as the graphic video that is circulating online.
One person wrote, “Damn, this PnB Rock news is wild. Also, I think it’s f**ked up that folks on here are blaming his girlfriend. I think she’s in a very bad place already after seeing her boyfriend get shot. She doesn’t need to be blamed for the actions of a person who’s out here robbing people.”
