FBG Murda was hospitalized after being shot during a dispute at a Texas business, but police say he’s the suspect in the case—not the victim.
FBG Murda took multiple bullets during a scuffle at a Texas muffler shop, but police say he’s no victim—they’re calling him the aggressor in an armed confrontation that left him hospitalized and facing charges.
The 26-year-old Dallas rapper, born Cayto Rivers, was shot several times on Tuesday (March 26) during a violent altercation at a business in Irving, according to the Irving Police Department.
Authorities say the incident involved FBG Murda, 21-year-old Elijah Jacobs and the shop’s owners.
Police allege that Murda and Jacobs entered a restricted area of the shop, became hostile when told to leave, pulled out guns and got into a physical fight with the business owners.
“During the struggle, the suspects threatened to shoot the victims,” police said in a statement. “As one victim held onto a suspect, the suspects attempted to flee in a vehicle, dragging the victim alongside. During this altercation, a firearm was discharged, and one suspect was struck.”
Despite being the one shot, Murda is listed by police as a suspect, not a victim.
Once he’s released from medical care, he’s expected to be booked for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Jacobs was arrested and charged with the same offense.
Video clips posted to social media show Murda receiving emergency care after the shooting, prompting concern from the Hip-Hop community.
The rapper has built a strong presence in the Dallas drill scene, with a growing audience on TikTok and Spotify.
Investigators have not yet determined who fired the shot that struck Murda.
The motive behind the confrontation remains unclear, and police are asking anyone with information to come forward.
