This is the moment gunmen opened fire on rapper Quando Rondo in a failed ‘revenge shooting’ that left his cousin dead. 

The 2022 shooting in Los Angeles saw several masked men getting out of a car and shooting at a car with Quando Rondo, real name Terrell Bowman, at a gas station in West Hollywood with his sister and 24-year-old cousin Saviay’a Robinson. 

While Bowman and his sister were left unharmed, Robinson suffered several gunshot wounds and died as a result.

It comes as rival rapper Lil Durk was today arrested for a murder-for-hire plot. That arrest came hours after five alleged members of his OFT gang were arrested and charged over the 2022 shooting. 

Prosecutors allege that the five men carried out the hit in retaliation for the killing of up-and-coming musician King Von in 2020 in Atlanta. 

An indictment filed in Los Angeles claims that the five men charged – Kavon London Grant, Deandre Dontrell Wilson, Keith Jones, David Brian Lindsey and Asa Houston – all have ties to the ‘Only the Family’ also known as OTF, a Chicago-based hip-hop collective set up by Lil Durk who was a mentor of fellow rapper King Von. 

After carrying out the attack the men went to a nearby hamburger restaurant where they allegedly discussed payment.

The next day Wilson, Jones, Lindsey and Houston flew back to Chicago from San Diego.

The five alleged attackers were arrested in Chicago yesterday and have been charged with conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire, committing murder-for-hire involving a death, and use of a machine gun in a violent crime resulting in death.  

King Von, real name Dayvon Bennett, was killed during a brawl outside a hookah lounge in Atlanta in November 2020. 

Following his death, an unnamed co-conspirator who is part of OTF offered money and ‘lucrative music opportunities’ to anyone who would kill Bowman.

The indictment claims that after tracking Bowman down in LA, Grant rented a hotel room on August 18 2022. He later met his co-conspirators and armed with several firearms they rented a car to track down Bowman’s black Cadillac – The Chicago Tribune reported. 

The flights and rental cars were paid for with credit cards linked to OTF, according to prosecutors.

A surveillance image including the indictment showed Grant’s BMW rental following Bowman’s Cadillac. 

Once he was at the gas station, Houston drove down an alley and let Jones and Lindsey and another unidentified person out. 

Lil Durk has a lengthy arrest record for weapons and theft charges spanning back 15 years, records show.

His first brush with the law came in 2009, when he was arrested for criminal trespass to a vehicle in Illinois.

The Class A misdemeanor was dismissed by the courts, ‘with leave to reinstate’ which means the state could bring it back up again.

And just a month later, Lil Durk was back before the courts in connection with alleged trespassing and breach of bail conditions.

The rapper appeared to steer clear of trouble for a couple of years, before being convicted on weapons charges in 2011.

In October that year, he was pulled over for drinking in his car and police found a gun with a defaced serial number in his vehicle.

He was sentenced to three months in jail for aggravated unlawful use of a weapon. 

Just two years later, the ‘Broadway Girls’ hitmaker was arrested again and charged with unlawful use of a weapon by a felon.

Police said he threw a loaded 0.40 caliber gun into his vehicle when he was approached by police in Chicago on June 5, 2013.

He was sentenced to 18 months probation for the offense. During this time, he was charged with more weapons use violations after being accused of being in possession of two guns.

However, a judge ruled that the rapper was not ‘in possession and control’ of the weapons, leading to the charges being dismissed.

His legal woes escalated in 2019, when he and the late King Von were slapped with attempted murder charges over a non-lethal shooting in Atlanta.

He was released on a $250,000 bond before the charges were dropped in October 2022.

OTF was founded by Lil Durk more than a decade ago as Chicago’s drill rap scene began to gain traction. 

Lil Durk is among the most successful drill rappers to come out of Chicago. The genre is famous for its hyper-violent lyrics and often focus on gang feuds.

In August 2020, another Chicago rapper was killed in a drive-by shooting. FBG Duck, born Carlton Weekly, was shot dead in broad daylight while shopping in boutiques in the Gold Coast area of Chicago.

Three weeks before the attack, Weekly released a music video for his song ‘Dead B***hes,’ in which he made what police have characterized as ‘derogatory statements’ about members of the rival Black Disciples gang who have died. 

MailOnline have approached representatives of Lil Durk for a comment.
