Police have identified the man killed as 26-year-old Philant Johnson, T.I.'s friend, personal assistant and an employee of his Grand Hustle Records.

According to the Cincinnati Police Department, officers responded to a report of a shooting on southbound Interstate 75, one of two main arteries that lead to Cincinnati's downtown, around 3 a.m. "Officers found four victims at the scene suffering from gunshot wounds," according to the report. "All four victims were transported to University Hospital for treatment, where one of the victims succumbed to his injuries."

The incident occurred just hours after the end of a show by the 25-year-old rapper (born Clifford Harris) and protégé Yung Joc at Bogart's nightclub in the Clifton neighborhood near the University of Cincinnati. Following the show, T.I. and his crew went to an after-hours party at the Ritz nightclub in the Roselawn neighborhood across town, where an altercation inside the club caused the Atlanta crew to leave.



fine individual

Where the fuck does that judgement come from? If you read what you posted, after they got into it, TI and his people left. Obviously they were the ones who started shooting.

Probably just looking for street cred. I believe being shot at, and serving time is a requirement for rap artists now.

In that case, most people would buy handguns.......Not rifles. I don't hear about too many people carrying rifles in their car, or for concealed carry duty.

And the only reason this clown intervened in the suicide was to score some points from the judge during his upcoming trial.

It is really amazing how much one's humanitarian side comes out when that person has a hearing in two days for violating his probation. That hearing happened today, T.I. lost, and will be going back to jail for 11 months for violating the terms of his probation by getting busted with drugs and failing a drug test.
