The rapper Zerail Dijon Rivera, who is also known under the name Indian Red Boy, was apparently shot in his car in front of a running mobile phone camera, as reported by several media outlets, including "The Grio" and the "Musikexpress".
Accordingly, the attack is said to have occurred on July 8th.
A video of the fact is circulating on social networks.
It shows Rivera talking to a friend when suddenly shots are fired and the 21-year-old is hit several times.
Targeted act suspected
The police officers who were called found the young man slumped on the front seat of a vehicle, the police said.
Rivera had been declared dead by rescue workers.
The investigators are looking for the perpetrator or perpetrators and ask the population for clues.
It is assumed that Rivera was targeted, a police representative told Revolt TV.
It appears as if the victim was a gang member.
In the rap scene, rumors are circulating that the act is said to have something to do with defaced graffiti for the rapper Nipsey Hussle, who was also killed.
Rivera is associated with this.
