The first lawyer that represented A$AP Rocky in Sweden has reportedly been shot.
In July, A$AP Rocky - real name Rakim Mayers - was locked up in Sweden after being charged with assault.
According to TMZ, Henrik Olsson Lilja, who was A$AP Rocky's first lawyer while the rapper was detained in Sweden, has reportedly been shot "in the head and the chest" while leaving his apartment building in Stockholm this morning (6 September).
The gunman reportedly left the scene in a SUV. The lawyer's current condition is unknown.
TMZ also reports that a suspect has been arrested in connection with the attempted murder.
Last month, A$AP Rocky shared his first single since being released from jail, "Babushka Boi".
