A man who was arrested in Las Vegas on Thursday (Sept 29), and his 17-year-old son, were charged with murder in the fatal shooting of rapper PnB Rock at a South Los Angeles restaurant, authorities said.
An FBI-led fugitive task force took 40-year-old Freddie Lee Trone into custody at about 1pm, Los Angeles police said. He had been charged earlier in the day with one count of murder, two counts of second-degree robbery and one count of conspiracy to commit robbery, the District Attorney’s Office said. His son, who was arrested Tuesday (Sept 27), was charged with the same counts.
