– Rapper Fabolous was shot early Tuesday as he stood at a Manhattan parking garage, spurring a sequence of events that left him hospitalized and then under arrest. The 28-year-old rapper had just left a restaurant when a gunman opened fire, police said. Fabolous was hit in the thigh. He and his entourage fled, attracting the attention of police when they ran a red light. Officers stopped them and discovered two loaded guns in the vehicle, both of which apparently were unlicensed, police said. The rapper was in police custody after being treated at Bellevue Hospital. Police were searching for the shooter.
