CBS4 news reports that an alleged confrontation had developed elsewhere, and ended up in a shooting outside The Licking restaurant.

“There were multiple shots fired, it sounded like an assault rifle,” witness Ced Mogul told the local media

It’s understood that six people were taken to nearby hospitals, while four of whom were airlifted and transported to the Ryder Trauma Center for further assistance.

Another four drove reportedly themselves or had someone drive them to the hospital.

The shooting happened during rapper French Montana’s music video shoot, in the parking lot of the restaurant.

Mogul said more than a dozen gunshots rang out and people scattered for cover everywhere.

“When we heard the gunshots, people started running, some people had blood on their shirts, some people were crying on the ground,” said Mogul. “It’s just tragic.”

While no official word has come from the Rapper’s social media accounts regarding his status there has been no indication that the No stylist hitmaker was among those injured.
