Teen, woman in custody in PnB Rock’s fatal shooting at Roscoe’s; father is sought

LOS ANGELES — A teenage boy 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, identified as the boy’s father, 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.

A law enforcement source told The Times that the murder suspect is the 17-year-old son of Freddie Trone.
