INGLEWOOD, CA. (THECOUNT) — PnB Rock has died after being shot during a robbery while dining with his girlfriend at Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles in Inglewood. We are now learning that earlier in the day, Rock and his girlfriend Stephanie Sibounheuang posted pictures on an Instagram story showing off the rapper’s jewelry, then in a later post, the couple tagged the Inglewood location of the restaurant in which they were dining.
A short time later, Police responded to a call of a shooting at Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles. Rock would later die at an area hospital around 1:30 p.m. Monday, the victim on an apparent robbery.
Police say no other patrons were harmed during the robbery and confirmed that the rapper was “targeted for his jewelry.”
It’s unknown if the suspect or suspects in the shooting were monitoring Rock’s IG account.
The suspect brandished a firearm inside the restaurant and demanded items from PnB Rock. “He shot the victim and ran out the side door to a getaway car and then fled the parking lot,” said Los Angeles police Capt. Kelly Muniz, reports RapRadar.
