LOS ANGELES — A teenager and a woman are in custody in the slaying of rapper PnB Rock, who was gunned down two weeks ago at Roscoe’s House of Chicken & Waffles in South L.A., Los Angles police confirmed to the Los Angeles Times on Wednesday. Authorities are searching for a third suspect whom they describe as armed and dangerous.
LAPD Capt. Kelly Muniz said a federal task force arrested two people in Lawndale on Tuesday in Rock’s slaying. A minor was arrested on suspicion of murder, and Shauntel Trone, 38, was arrested on suspicion of accessory to murder, Muniz said. A third suspect, Freddie Lee Trone, 40, remains at large, she said.
Freddie Trone’s photograph was released by investigators Wednesday in an effort to track him down and arrest him. Authorities believe Trone was involved in the rapper’s killing, which occurred during a violent robbery inside the Manchester Avenue eatery on Sept. 12.
