The New York rap scene is taking a hit with all its popular rappers being locked up lately for murder and shootings. Today we got word that Kay Flocks friend up-and coming rapper C Blu was arrested and charged with shooting a NYPD officer. C Blu is only 16 years old.
The altercation ensued after police were called to a scene to disperse a group of “disorderly” people. When C Blu was approached by an officer demanding he remove his hands from his pockets, C Blu refused and a physical altercation ensued. During the altercation, the gun C Blu was carrying discharged and grazed the officer in the leg (not to mention going through his own leg).
“This defendant has taken to social media and appeared multiple times displaying a firearm that looks similar to the firearm he possessed in the incident,” Assistant District Attorney Joseph Maniscalco said at C Blu’s arraignment.
“My client never touched the gun,” said the rapper’s attorney Dawn Florio. “You could hear the people saying that they thought the police officer shot my client.”
C Blu remains in police custody on a $200,000 bond.
