While initial reports indicated that rapper Pop Smoke was killed in a home invasion robbery, police are still trying to sort out what happened.
While initial reports described the fatal encounter as a home invasion robbery, Los Angeles Police Department officials said they are still trying to sort out what happened.
Tippet said detectives are looking for evidence in the neighborhood as well as scanning the internet for clues.“There is a lot of social media information out there. The house is in a neighborhood surrounded by video cameras,” he said. Because Pop Smoke was considered by law enforcement to be affiliated with the Crips street gang, detectives suspect the slaying is gang-related and the assailants are likely gang members, but it has not been determined whether the killing was motivated by a gang rivalry, officials said.
He was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Officers detained several people inside the house, but they were later released. At least four suspects fled the scene, authorities said.
