Rappers Young Jeezy and Rick Ross in angry fight at BET Awards which 'saw shots fired in parking lot'


Shots were allegedly fired on Saturday night outside the taping of the BET Hip Hop Awards in Atlanta following a shoving match that broke out backstage between rappers Young Jeezy and Rick Ross.
According to TMZ sources, the two performers exchanged heated words during the ceremony and started pushing each other before their bodyguards and BET security intervened and separated the two men.
But that was apparently not the end of the incident. According to eyewitnesses, soon afterwards a member of Ross's entourage went to the parking lot of the Boisfeuillet Jones Atlanta Civic Center and pulled out a gun, firing several shots.

No injuries were reported, and police have denied that shots were in fact fired.
Sources said that the concert venue was temporarily shut down during a musical tribute to the late hip hop mogul Chris Lighty. The building later reopened and the taping of the awards show continued with heightened security.
According to the Atlanta Police Department, neither Young Jeezy nor Rick Ross was arrested in connection to the altercation.
Rick Ross, 36, and Young Jeezy, 34, have not enjoyed a good relationship in the past, but lately the two appeared to be on good terms.

But on Saturday, Hot 97 DJ Funkmaster Flex tweeted that things between the rappers came to a head when members of their cliques crossed paths backstage.
At around 9.30pm, the DJ tweeted: 'Jeezy and Rick Ross just had words backstage!! Pushing and shoving!!!'
Minutes later, he posted an update, telling his followers: 'Beef just spread to the parking lot!!!' before tweeting, 'Shots fired in parking lot!!! Gunman arrested!!! Back to the show and the Club later!!!'

Multiple sources confirmed to MTV News that Ross's protégé Gunplay was also involved in a fight with members of 50 Cent's G-Unit camp.
Atlanta Journal Constitution reported that Jeezy was arrested in 2005 for carrying a concealed firearm without a permit and in 2008 for DUI, while Ross was arrested in 2008 for gun and marijuana charges, and in 2011 for possession of marijuana.
The BET Hip Hop Awards will air on October 9.
