This is really a hot ass mess... who would go to a Pretty Ricky concert and shoot the place up? This is trully sad...
A British student who was acting as a member of security staff was shot in the stomach during a Pretty Ricky concert.
According to The Sun, the unidentified 21-year-old man was shot on Saturday ( March 10) after several fights broke out when someone threw a tear gas canister in the crowd during the group's performance. The LoughboroughUniversity student is now recovering in hospital. His injuries are not life threatening. The incident, which occurred at the school, also sent six others to the hospital with injuries.
"People were just freaking out; no one knew what was going on. A lot of people were unable to breathe. I was outside the room when I heard the gunshots," explained fellow student, Rebecca Abraham. "There were a lot of people crying, a lot of people unable to breathe. They were streaming out of the room, coughing and in tears."
Another student who witnessed the trouble said, "People were just freaking out. No one really knew what was going on. "Pretty Ricky aren't a 'guns and violence' sort of group but that kind of crowd still turned up and they just kicked off."
A 22-year-old Nottinghamshire man who was not a student has been arrested for the shooting and police are investigating who discharged the tear gas.
