Wiz Khalifa's concert with Atlanta hip hop artist Jeezy in California was supposed to entertain people, but a shooting incident suddenly brought terror disrupting the Friday night performance show.
Authorities confirmed that a 38 year-old man was shot multiple times while the show was going on in the Shoreline Amphitheatre. The man's identity was not revealed by the police, but according to Fox news, the victim's friend identified him as Eric Johnson who was said to be a promoter and head of full Pull Entertainment. The victim was then rushed into the hospital wherein he received treatment; however, he still died on Saturday night.
Police are still in pursuit of the gunman who was believed to make his way backstage while Wiz Khalifa and Atlanta's Jeezy are having their concert. Members of authority are still investigating how did the shooter gained access into the area while equipped with a weapon. It was believed that the shooter who was identified to be in his 20s used a black pistol with a large magazine.
It is still a mystery how the man was able to bring the gun when the security actually does not allow people to go in the area especially when they are carrying large bags or backpacks. Police have already asked for the cooperation of the social media to cooperate with them since no arrest was made that time. They are asking for the people to share a photo or video of the incident that could probably help them in their investigation.
With what happened on Friday night, Wiz Khalifa and the Atlanta artist's concert have been scheduled to continue at the Sleep Train Amphitheatre, but it was canceled due to the ongoing investigation in their previous venue. The rap artist already expressed his thoughts about the situation in his Twitter account. He then blamed the cancellation as a result of a situation that's already beyond their control.
