Rapper Cassidy Turns Himself In
The Philadelphia native surrendered on Friday to murder charges
Rapper Cassidy is giving other hustlers a bad rap. The Philadelphia native surrendered on Friday to Philadelphia police on charges of murder, attempted murder, reckless endangerment, aggravated assault, conspiracy and weapons possession. The rapper is expected to remain behind bars at least until he is arraigned, and that can be as late as Saturday. Cassidy is a suspect in the fatal shooting of 22-year old Desmond Hawkins, who was killed during a gun fight between two groups of men on April 15. Philly police claim Cassidy and two other men were armed with .45 and .40 caliber handguns, 9 mm pistols, AK-47 assault rifles and 7.62 mm rifles during the incident. I'm a Hustla, Cassidy's second album, is due out on June 28.
