Marlo Shot Dead In Atlanta
Lil Marlo was killed in a shooting in Atlanta over the weekend.
Officers at the Atlanta Police Department responded to a call about a car accident on Interstate 285 in downtown Atlanta on Sunday night. When police arrived, they found a 30-year-old man had been shot inside the vehicle. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Marlo is believed to have been intentionally shot while driving and a homicide investigation is underway. “At this time, investigators believe the victim was the intended target of the gunfire and they are working to determine the circumstances surrounding the shooting,” a law enforcement official tells TMZ.
The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office confirmed that they found the body of Rudolph Johnson, which is Lil Marlo’s government name. A video of the shooting scene appeared online.
Marlo signed to Quality Control Music in 2017 and was known for records including “2 Hard the Way” with Lil Baby and “9 + Z6ne = 1’5.” His most recent album, 1st & 3rd, was released in February featuring the title track with Future and Lil Baby. He was also featured on last year’s Quality Control compilation Control the Streets, Vol. 2.
