A 50 Cent and Tekashi69 music video collaboration was interrupted by gunfire in the direct vicinity of the venue in Brooklyn, reported TMZ. According to the witnesses interviewed by the media outlet, on August 14 at around 10:30 p.m. a person in a white Porsche with New Jersey license plates fired 11 9mm rounds from a semi-automatic weapon. Neither of the rappers or film crew was hurt as the shots were fired in another direction.

It is unclear whether the assailant(s) targeted any of the rappers, but according to TMZ's sources in law enforcement, police aren't ruling out that either 50 Cent or Tekashi69 was the target. So far no one has been arrested in connection with the case.

Twitterians reacted differently to news of the incident. Some people didn't believe the incident actually happened…

…or even joked about how rappers seemingly attract bullets.

Others hinted that it was not particularly surprising considering many rappers had ties to the criminal world.

Some Twitterians even noted that rappers deserved being shot at.
