Lor Scoota's manager killed near Baltimore's Druid Hill Park
Violence has again struck the Baltimore rap community as Trayvon Lee, manager of slain Baltimore rapper Lor Scoota and brother of popular dirt bike rider Chino Braxton, was killed Wednesday night near Druid Hill Park in Northwest Baltimore, police said.
Lee's death comes less than two weeks after Tyriece Watson — better known as Lor Scoota — was killed leaving a peace rally in East Baltimore on June 25.
Police have not named suspects in either shooting.
The multiple incidents in a short period of time "points to the possibility of being related," said T.J. Smith, Baltimore police spokesperson.
"It's also not normal for several members of the same family to be victims of violent crime," Smith added.
Smith said the investigation into Lor Scoota's death is ongoing and no arrest has been made. The rapper's death appears to be related to a previous violent incident involving someone Scoota was associated with, in what Smith called "literally a tennis match of violence."
Lee, who went by the nickname "Truz," and was CEO of YBS Records, was 24.
He was shot multiple times in his upper body in what police are calling a targeted attack outside a home on the 2300 block of Anoka Ave. Police said Lee lived at the home in the Liberty Square neighborhood, where officers responded about 7:45 p.m.
He was taken to an area hospital, where he died. Police said Lee had a child.
Braxton, 19, posted a photo of himself and Lee on Instagram Thursday morning with a long caption mourning his death and praising his efforts as a father.
"I went through so much this year it's crazy," he wrote. "I was shot in my head 2times ... then we lose ya artist @scootaupnext ... Then a week later we lost you."
Braxton, who identified Lee as his brother in social media posts and a recent interview with The Sun, pledged to take care of Lee's son and family.
"The city I did so much for an put it all behind had betrayed me bro," Braxton wrote. "They took you."
Braxton was shot in the same block in February.
Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill shared Braxton's post and added: "I been seeing so much death lately it's a shame!
