[Gruesome Video Surfaces]
While at Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles, PNB Rock’s girlfriend posted and geotag location post to her Instagram, which has since then been deleted.
As reported by the LA Times, “LA Capt. Kelly Muniz said a suspect brandished a firearm inside the restaurant and demanded items from the victim. Sources reported that PNB Rock was targeted for his jewelry”.
In the last video, PNB Rock posted to his Instagram account on his stories, his neck was dripped in his jewelry. When the gruesome video of PNB Rock surfaced, it seemed that his jewelry was missing from his neck.
Muniz said “He shot the victim and ran out the side door to a getaway car and then fled the parking lot.”
