Jurors have reached verdict at felony trial of rapper A$AP Rocky

Deccan Chronicle  

Los Angeles: Jurors in Los Angeles reached a verdict Tuesday at the trial of rapper A$AP Rocky, who is charged with firing a gun at a former friend. The jury of seven women and five men reached their unanimous decision after deliberating for only about three hours after a three-week trial that ended with closing arguments on Friday. Prosecutors said Rocky twice fired a gun at his former longtime friend, who goes by A$AP Relli, during a dispute on a Hollywood street in 2021. The defense argued that Rocky fired blanks from a prop gun that he picked up from a music video set.
