A night at Akron’s Field House Lounge took a violent turn when gunfire erupted during Boosie Badazz’s concert, leaving three people wounded—two in critical condition.
The shooting sent chaos through the packed venue in the early hours of Monday, Cleveland 19 News reported. Video from the scene captures Boosie mid-performance when gunshots suddenly disrupt the show. The rapper quickly drops to the ground and bolts from the stage as panic ensues within the venue. Police reports reveal that off-duty officers, who were acting as security, immediately called for backup after the shots rang out.
Violence Strikes Boosie Concert: Fans Injured, Details Unclear
An 18-year-old and a 36-year-old man were quickly transported to a local hospital, where they are in critical condition.
A third individual, a 25-year-old male, was treated for a minor gunshot wound. The identities of all three victims remain undisclosed. Authorities believe the shooting erupted after a confrontation during the performance. No suspects have been named, and Boosie has not addressed the incident publicly.
Boosie Badazz’s shows have previously been overshadowed by violence. Just last year, gunfire claimed the lives of two men at one of his concerts in Iowa. Appearing to downplay the gravity of the situation, Boosie took to social media shortly after, stating, “They just shut the concert down. I’ve been in the back a couple of hours waiting to perform and they just shut the concert down – I don’t know – some shit happened in the front.” “We’re going to take it to Crush Ultra Lounge, the party don’t stop. Guess they gonna have to book me again in Omaha, but we finna … we finna take it to Crush man.” In 2017, while Boosie was on stage in Gardena, California, a shooter opened fire, injuring two fans with wounds that were not life-threatening.
