Musically, Rich Homie Quan is having a big week with the release of Rich Gang’s mixtape, but unfortunately, the rapper is dealing with some sad news at home. His father and manager was shot multiple times during a robbery attempt in Atlanta on Monday and is reportedly in critical condition.
According to TMZ, Quan’s father, Corey Lamar, was working in the barbershop he owns yesterday morning, when an armed suspect attempted to rob it. Lamar was reportedly shot four times, and he was rushed to a nearby hospital to undergo surgery. He’s currently listed in critical condition, and the rapper, born Dequantes Lamar, has been at his father’s side.
Local police in Atlanta are currently investigating the shooting. One local witness told WSB-TV 2 that he chased the gunman, but saw him escape in a car. “I heard about three gunshots, and so I saw the guy come out,” Van White said. “He got in a black car, and that’s all I know from there.”
This is reportedly the second time that the shop has been attacked in the past month.
Rich Homie Quan has not issued a statement. Representatives from his camp have not responded for comment at press time.
