Five Suspects Arrested For Killing Brooklyn Rapper Pop Smoke

Police in Los Angeles arrested five people in connection to the slaying of Brooklyn-born rapper Pop Smoke, who was killed in a home-invasion robbery in February, authorities said.

The LAPD announced the busts of three men and two juveniles in a tweet Thursday afternoon, but did not provide further details.

“LAPD Detectives have arrested three adult males & two juvenile males related to the Feb 19th murder of Bashar Jackson, a New York based rapper known as Pop Smoke,” the department wrote in the tweet.

“We will provide further details as they become available,” they added.

The rapper was shot to death in the apparent robbery when four suspects burst into the Los Angeles home where he was staying, TMZ reported at the time.

The 20-year-old rhymester was wounded and rushed to a hospital where he later died.

Pop Smoke, who hailed from Canarsie, skyrocketed to fame in New York and across the country with the release of his 2019 album “Meet the Woo,” which featured singles “Dior” and “Welcome to the Party.”

His latest album, “Shoot For The Stars, Aim For The Moon,” was posthumously released last week.
