Maryland rapper Goonew was fatally shot on Friday. He was 24 years old.
His manager confirmed the death to The Washington Post. Police don’t yet have a suspect in custody. The Prince George’s County Police Department initially shared the news, tweeting that a shooting had taken place at 5:45 p.m. in District Heights, Maryland. The victim died at a hospital at around 7:30 p.m.
A reward of up to $25,000 is also available for information that leads to an arrest, per a PGPD news release.
Goonew had been involved in a shooting in 2019, though he survived. He reportedly tweeted a year later, “I Ain’t Never Show This Pictures But July 5th Last Year They Told My Mother I Was Dead I Came Back… I’m Blessed & thankful I’m Still Here.”
