“My office conducted a thorough examination of the evidence in this case and determined that the addition of a charge of using a special firearm was justified,” RIA Novosti quoted a statement from the district attorney in Los Angeles.

It is noted that the rapper was charged with two cases of use of firearms.

The Los Angeles prosecutor's office also found that the artist shot himself.

ASAP Rocky is expected to appear in court for formal charges on Wednesday, August 16th.

In July 2020, it was reported that American rap artist Rudolph Johnson, aka Lil Marlo, had been shot to death in Atlanta.
