The murder of American rapper Baby Uiie by shooting on Halloween night

Khaberni - The American rapper "Baby Uiie", the son of the notorious "Rolling 60" gang leader, was killed in a shooting in front of a store in Los Angeles on Halloween night.

Last Friday evening, the American city of Los Angeles witnessed a horrifying crime, where the American rapper Jabari Henley, known artistically as "Baby Uiie" (Baby Uiie), was killed after being shot in front of a smoke shop at the intersection of 69th and Figueroa Streets.

According to what TMZ reported from family sources, the 34-year-old artist died instantly from multiple injuries, while the police confirmed that paramedics declared him dead at the scene.

According to eyewitnesses, "Baby Uiie" had approached a parked car moments before a barrage of gunfire was heard, as the shooter fled the scene, and authorities continue to investigate to identify the perpetrator. 

The police detained several individuals wearing cowboy hats similar to the "Texas Ranger" style for interrogation before they were released without charges.

The victim is the son of Eugene "Big U" Henley, one of the most controversial figures in Los Angeles and the alleged leader of the "Rolling 60s Neighborhood Crips" street gang, one of the largest gangs in the city.

It is worth noting that earlier this year, "Big U" faced federal charges including extortion, fraud, and embezzlement from charity funds.

A wide wave of condolence messages from the artist's fans and friends spread across social media, where one wrote on the platform "X": "The son of the leader of Rolling 60, Baby Uiie, was shot dead in front of a store in Los Angeles.. Rest in peace".

"Baby Uiie" was famous for his collaborations with several renowned rappers, notably the song "Hood" in which he collaborated with Hood Rich Pablo Juan and Kenny Beats, as well as his presence in the West Coast rap music community.

The deceased leaves behind his mother Stacey Henley and three siblings, including Dayan Henley, an American football player for the Los Angeles Chargers.

Although the authorities have not yet confirmed whether the crime was gang-related, close sources suggested that "Baby Uiie" may have known the killer, in a crime that brings to mind the series of assassinations that have targeted a number of rap artists in the United States in recent years.
