“At approximately 16:37 hours today, right here in the 100 block of East Oak Street, we had three individuals shopping,” Chicago Police Deputy Chief Daniel O’Shea said to the media days after the shooting. “Two vehicles pulled up. Four individuals exited those vehicles, two from each vehicle, and began firing at the individuals that were on the sidewalk outside of one of the stores here. They also struck a female that was in one of the vehicles, which was also parked outside one of the stores.”

The men said to be responsible for the shooting were taken into custody in Oct. 2021, but Duck’s mom says that multiple people got arrested for his murder.

“[The feds] just called me and told me they arrested Muwop, they arrested C-Thang, they arrested…two more, five people that they have in custody,” Weekly said in the video. “The lil boy who killed himself August the 24, he was one of the shooters. They shot my son, they just told me that … You heard it from me first. They got they ass. They got them muthafuckas.”

One of the three men apprehended for the murder took his own life while behind bars.

On Friday (Dec. 3), 600 Breezy was arrested in Polk County, Iowa for what authorities are claiming is a probation violation.  According to VladTV, police records show the 30-year-old rapper born Antonio Valentino King, was arrested and is currently held without bail. The Chicago rapper swore he was going to turn his life around. In September, he posted a video to Instagram highlighting his physical transformation and clear outlook on life.

“7 months clean,” he wrote. “No Lean No Pills No hard drugs at all . 6’5 240 pounds, Gym 3-4 times a week . Take care of yourself , don’t shorten your life span following trends.”

This is Breezy’s second arrest in recent months as he was arrested in Alabama last month on charges of being a fugitive from justice though he was later released. Breezy’s desire for personal change hasn’t conflicted with his thoughts on the actions of others. Following the arrest of FBG Duck’s alleged killers, Breezy vouched for their innocence.

“They just did whatever they did because they would’ve been locked them n****s up,” he told DJ Vlad. “That shit was over a year ago. It wouldn’t have taken that long to figure out if they got whatever they claim they got. That wouldn’t have took them that long. I feel like they just smacking them on the wrist and trying to make it seem like ‘yeah we’re trying to help stop the violence or help solve this case,’ but I feel like them boys innocent man.”
