Rapper Benny the Butcher, a member of the hip hop group Griselda, was shot during a robbery outside of a store in Houston, Texas, on Sunday.
Houston Police spokeswoman Jodi Silva said the 35-year-old performer, whose real name is Jeremie Pennick, was shot in the leg around 4:30 p.m.
Saturday afternoon in the parking lot of a Walmart on the southwest side of the city. As Pennick stepped out of his Rolls Royce, she said five individuals wearing masks approached him and two others who were with him, demanding their chains.
Silva noted that one of the suspects thought the rapper was moving too slowly and subsequently shot him. She said the suspects fled the scene and Pennick was taken to the hospital.
