Fatal shooting after Meek Mill concert in Conn.
WALLINGFORD, Conn. -- Two people are dead and two injured after a shooting outside a Connecticut theater late Friday night following a concert, police say.
A Wallingford police spokeswoman tells the Record Journal that officers responded to reports of shots fired outside the Oakdale Theatre after rapper Meek Mill performed. Officers found two dead and say the other two with non-life-threatening injuries were taken to hospitals.
Police haven’t released the names and ages of the four victims. The spokeswoman says no one is in custody. Authorities didn’t immediately release information on suspects or vehicles.
The shooting took place not long after 11 p.m. as the concert was letting out, CBS Hartford affiliate WFSB reported. Police said gunfire rang out near the theater in a parking lot adjacent to the venue.
The number of shooters remains unclear. Police believe that those involved attended the concert.
Meek Mill was not injured and isn’t believed to be connected to those involved.
Mill, whose real name is Robert Williams, was recently under house arrest after violating probation for the fourth time in eight years.
