Prosecutors in Charlotte, North Carolina, dismissed charges Monday against the six men who were arrested in connection with a brazen daytime shooting incident involving Waka Flocka Flame.
The February 16 shooting outside a car stereo store where Flocka was getting some work done on his tour bus took place while the rapper was getting his picture taken with some fans. While a spokesperson for the Mc said in the aftermath of the incident — in which one man was injured — that it was related to an attempt by several men to steal jewelry from Waka (born Juaquin Malphurs) and his crew, the Charlotte Observer reported that prosecutors couldn't mount a strong case because they had little evidence to go on and none of the witnesses identified who was responsible for the shooting. There was also reportedly no evidence of an attempted robbery.
