Young Scooter passed away Friday on his 39th birthday. According to reports, police showed up at the 200 block of William Nye Drive in southeast Atlanta responding to calls about gunshots and a woman being dragged into a home.
“When officers arrived, they knocked on the door and a male opened the door and immediately shut the door on the officers,” explained Lt. Andrew Smith, who heads Atlanta’s homicide unit, as reported by Fox 5 Atlanta.
Police reported that one of the suspects who ran from the scene, identified as Young Scooter, hurt his leg while jumping fences during his escape attempt. He was later pronounced dead at Grady Hospital.
“The Atlanta Police Department has not been involved in any shootings tonight and the incident on William Nye—no one was—there was not a shooting at all,” Smith added, clearing up mixed reports that initially claimed a shooting had occurred.
After news of his death broke, hip-hop stars including Playboi Carti, Quavo, and ATL Jacob jumped online to share tributes and honor his memory.
