Fatal Shooting On Busta Video Set
Security guard gunned down; Busta, Missy, MJB and DMX all on set...
A security guard has been shot dead at Busta Rhymes' latest video shoot in Brooklyn, New York.
Israel Ramirez, 29, was shot in the chest in the early hours of this morning when a gun battle exploded outside the Kiss The Cactus Production studios. According to reports, 14 rounds were fired from an AK47 assault rifle, leaving a nearby car riddled with bullet holes.
Busta, Missy Elliott, Mary J Blige and DMX were all on set at the time of the shooting. 50 Cent and Lloyd Banks were also scheduled to appear in the Touch It (The Remix) video, but it has not yet been confirmed whether they were in fact present.
New York cops found Ramirez dead from a single gunshot wound on the pavement outside the studio and are now examining CCTV footage from the area.
