Dallas police say an Instagram feud between two aspiring rappers ended with the shooting death of a 9 year old girl at an East Dallas apartment complex on Wednesday.
Brandoniya was at home preparing for school the next day when she was struck by a bullet while sitting on her couch, police said. “She felt safe. She was 9 years old,” Major Danny Williams said.
According to police, as reported by CBS 11, Tyrese, 19, went to the Roseland Townhomes to confront a rival rapper after the two traded insults on social media. Police say the rival refused to come out, and Tyrese allegedly went around to the back of the complex and fired shots at what he believed was the rival’s unit. Investigators say he hit the wrong apartment.
Tyrese turned himself in on Thursday and was charged with capital murder. Online jail records show he is being held in the Dallas County Jail on a $500,000 bond. No statement from Tyrese or his representatives had been made public as of publication. A charge is an allegation, and he has not been convicted.
