[Breitbart] The victim, a 21-year-old man, told law enforcement he recognized the artist and his entourage as they were pumping gas at an Exxon station at around 12:30, NJ reports.
I doubt he was pumping his own gas. Recognized the 'artist' through an Escalade window did he ?
The fan allegedly approached DMX, best known for his 1999 hit "Up in Here," and the pair held a conversation about music, before a member of the rapper's entourage produced a firearm and demanded he give them all his money.
"The two had a brief conversation about rap music and during the conversation a male in DMX's entourage, showed the victim a gun and demanded the victim's money," Newark Police spokesman Ronald Glover said in a statement.
When the alleged victim cooperated with the gunman, DMX then allegedly grabbed $3,200 in cash, before leaving the scene in one of the four black Cadillac Escalades his group was traveling in, Sgt. Glover told the news site.
Carrying $3,200 in cash to the gas station was he? No doubt picking up some chips and ale as well. |
