Music artist PnB Rock was murdered two weeks ago and the investigation to find his killer still continues.
However according to Hip-Hop DX, on Tuesday September 27th a 17-year-old was arrested in connection to the shooting after being apprehended in Lawndale, California. He is currently facing murder charges. Also arrested and charged as an accessory was his 32-year-old stepmother, Shauntel Trone, of Gardena, California. FM Hip-Hop also reported that the suspect’s 40-year-old father, Freddie Lee Trone, may have been involved in the killing. He is currently on the run.
Justice for PnB Rock!
PnB Rock, real name Rakim Allen, was murdered while dining at Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles in Los Angeles. The rapper was accompanied by his girlfriend Stephanie, who is the mother of his two children. The teen allegedly responsible for shooting PnB fled the restaurant afterwards and got in a vehicle where his father waited. Reports include that the father and son duo were already in the restaurants parking lot when PnB pulled up, eliminating the idea that the rapper was targeted through Stephanie’s Instagram post. Police are asking people to call 911 if they know about Freddie’s whereabouts as it is crucial the rappers family receives justice.
RIP PnB
When PNB’s mother heard of his passing, she demanded his body be released by examiners to abide by Janazah. Unfortunately the examiner would not release Rock’s body for over a week. On September 21st, PNB was finally laid to rest during a Muslim funeral service in Philadelphia.

Danquah clears his name
Prior to these new developments in the murder case, those on social media were looking at Emmanul Danquah as a suspect. This was because a year prior to the shooting, Danquah and PnB had gotten into a heated exchange over social media. Danquah quickly shut down those rumors in a recent interview on the Drea O Show, saying, “I want everybody to know I had nothing to do with the murder of PnB Rock. I wasn’t there, I didn’t make an ‘OG phone call’ or anything.”
Rocks murder sparks controversy
As the weeks go on, fans and celebrities from around the world continue to mourn the rappers tragic death. Prior to Tuesday many people had pointed fingers at Rocks girlfriend for including their location on her Instagram story. Yet others like Cardi B doubted it was her fault and the star even took to Twitter to stand behind Stephanie. Cardi wrote, “Told y’all……Yall must not know how the hood moves …. Y’all owe that girl a apology for the shit y’all put her through knowing that she saw her baby dad die in her face….Social media investigators YALL SUCK!!!!”
