US Rapper Doe B dies at the age of 22 following a shooting in an Alabama bar.
Doe B, real name Glenn Thomas, of Montgomery died after an early morning shooting on Saturday December 28th, local NBC affiliate WSFA reported.
The shooting occurred at the Centennial Hill Bar and Grill. The police arrived the scene to find Doe B, Kimberle Johnson and six other victims after they responded to a 911 call of multiple gun shots.
According to reports, Johnson was pronounced dead at the scene while Doe B was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
The bar where the shooting occurred has prior record of a shooting. It was formerly known as Rose Supper Club, but that establishment lost its liquor license and closed a year ago after a December 2012 shooting left six people injured. Centennial Hill opened earlier this year.
Doe B’s death was confirmed on Twitter by his camp.
