Four people were gunned down, one fatally, on Thursday in California as fans celebrated the life of rapper Nipsey Hussle following his shooting death at 33 last month.

The victims aged between 30 and 50 were three black males and a woman who was also black,

LAPD said about the South LA incident around 103rd and Main streets: 'We must stop this senseless violence.'

Cops said the suspects were in a gray Hyundai as a procession moved through the South LA area around 6.25pm on the day of his memorial event at Downtown LA's Staples Center.

Nipsey Hussle Memorial: LAPD And Nation Of Islam Will Provide Security

There will be extensive security presence at the memorial at Staples Center for Nipsey Hussle on Thursday as well as a procession from the memorial through the streets of South L.A.

The Los Angeles Police Department will pull in officers from divisions across the city to maintain a peaceful and respectable memorial event, officials said. The police presence, according to officials, will be substantial but mostly for traffic and peacekeeping if needed.

Hussle was fatally shot outside his store March 31. A memorial several days later ended in violence, with several people injured, including two women who suffered gunshot wounds.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Looks like all that extra police presence did not work out all that well.
