Victim shot with Nipsey Hussle arrested because of slain rapper’s gang ties
Apparently Nipsey was giving the man, Kerry Lathan, who was newly released from prison, some clothes to wear.

A victim who was with Nipsey Hussle when the West Coast rapper was gunned down in front of his clothing store has been arrested on a suspected parole violation for reportedly associating with Nipsey.

Kerry Lathan, 56, who was shot in the back during the incident in front of Nipsey’s Marathon Clothing store, was treated and released from a hospital following the incident, according to TMZ. Lathan is confined to a wheelchair as a result of his injuries and is unable to walk, the entertainment news outlet reported.

Police charged Eric Holder with Nipsey’s murder and for two counts of attempted murder. Apparently, the rapper was giving Lathan, who was newly released from prison, some clothes to wear.

But Holder and Nipsey had a dispute when Holder left to retrieve a handgun, reports said. He returned and fired several rounds at the men, even shooting Nipsey at close range before fleeing the scene in a white Chevy Cruze that was driven by an unidentified woman.

By most accounts, Lathan was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. On Friday, he was also booked by police on a suspected parole violation for associating with a known gang member—Nipsey, a longtime member of the Rollin 60’s Crips, according to TMZ.

Lathan was taken to Men’s Central Jail in downtown Los Angeles, awaiting a decision by authorities on whether to revoke his bail, TMZ reported.

For all of his accolades for being a community activist and trying to steer people in his neighborhood in a positive direction, Nipsey also never disavowed his ties with the Rollin 60’s Crips, police said. Lathan, who was out on parole after he served 20 years for murder at the time of the incident was at the store with Nipsey on March 31.

Nipsey, whose birth name was Ermias Joseph Asghedom, was memorialized this week in an emotional and memorable service that was attended by celebrities, athletes, friends, and family.

Wrong place at the wrong time, crazy. If he gets there 10 minutes earlier or 10 minutes later, he would not have had to deal with none of this bullshit.

Man Injured in Attack on Nipsey Hussle Has Been Released From Jail

The man wounded during the shooting that took the life of Nipsey Hussle has been released from jail.

Kerry Lathan was one of the two other men shot in the attack that killed Nipsey Hussle. Yet, instead of being treated like a victim, Lathan was arrested and thrown in jail on charges of parole violation for allegedly being involved in gang-related activity. However, on Sunday, Lathan's lawyer Lauren Noriega disclosed to the Daily News that her client is once again a free man.

"He’s very excited to be home with his family," Noriega told the publication before detailing how the shooting has affected her client's health.

"He’s still got the bullet in his back, and I don’t think they’re gonna remove that because it is so close to the spine, so he’s dealing with a lot of physical pain," she stated. "Other than that he’s very pleased to be with his family."

The proximity of the bullet speaks to the jaded fortune Lathan has experienced. After sitting behind bars for nearly 25-years, Lathan was initially released from jail in Sept. 2018. During an interview with VladTV, Lathan explained that since his release he had been trying to readjust to society by taking advantage of the goodwill offered by his community members. One of these good Samaritans was the late-Nipsey Hussle. Lathan detailed how although he didn't personally know Nipsey, the rapper was offering him a new shirt when they were shot in front of Hussle's Marathon Clothing store.

In the wake of this tragedy, fans were glad to know that authorities will be dropping the charges against Lathan and he's now able to celebrate his granddaughter's birthday with his family on May 8.
 
I wish we could all hear the straight "FACTS" from all this. First story was that ol boy had just been released from prison (which I always thought was faulty cause it was a Sunday) and that Nip was taking him to his store to get some clothes so he could look right when reuniting with his fambam but then it comes out that he has been out for 7 months already.

I really think niccas need to look into "Cowboy". Somethin bout this nicca dont feel right. He the ONLY one that was right there with Nip but just happened to go grab his food and while he was getting his food is when Nip get shot. If you look at the video after the shooting happened, Cowboy dont come out to help no one. I have zero clue on where he went. But if we rewind, he was the first nicca from 60's to do music, made videos (that even had Nip as a youngsta in the video) but never blew up. So something says this nicca has always been salty that his time came and went and that someone else is getting the shine that he always felt he deserved. Thats just my take on it.
