From BBC Radio1 website:

"There are reports from the States that Busta Rhymes may have been the victim of an attempted murder.

They claim Busta was at his record company offices in New York when his car windows were shot out - when he got to the car he found six shots had been fired into the passenger side.

Allegedly, it's the second time in a month a shooting has happened at Violator records, who also look after Missy Elliot and 50 Cent.

Police officials have refused to discuss speculation that the shootings may have sprung from a feud between rival rappers."

Who'd want to kill Busta? It's like gunning for Mr. Bojangles.

Gunfire erupted on the set of a Busta Rhymes video shoot early this morning in the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn, NY, leaving one man dead on the sidewalk. The shootout took place shortly after midnight this morning outside of the Kiss The Cactus Production studio in Brooklyn where over 200 people were on the scene for the Busta video shoot. Fourteen shots were fired from what is believed to have been an AK-47 assault rifle killing one and leaving a nearby Dodge Durango SUV riddled with five bullets.
