US police say a rapper's "cowardly" actions in a "rival gang stronghold" led to a spate of violence.

Lil Baby is setting the record straight after Atlanta police linked him to the tragic deaths of two teenagers at his music video shoot.

Two rival gangs were targeting one another as a result of an earlier shooting during a music video shoot for Atlanta rapper Lil Baby, whose real name is Dominique Jones, the witness said. Three men were shot while Jones’ music video was being filmed in northwest Atlanta in May 2024.
