RIP Proof

RIP a great rapper, and also from what I hear a really great guy. He will be missed.

RIP Proof

Bizarre is safe at home in Georgia. Reports are that the other man was Proof's cousin. I'm not going to act like I was any sort of Proof fan now that he has passed but I did beleive he was he best in D12 (which in itself isn't saying much) and he was a more then respectable rapper, I just never got into his stuff.

Which one's proof??

Id he the one who is always on stage with M&M??

Man Suspected Of Fatally Shooting Rapper Proof Surrenders, Pool Game May Have Sparked Fight

Date: 4/12/2006 8:30 pm



A 28-year-old man suspected of fatally shooting rapper Proof of D12 turned himself in today (April 12).

Mario Etheridge, 28, of Detroit is being detained by the police for allegedly shooting the rapper during an altercation inside of the C.C.C. nightclub.

Etheridge was also a bouncer at the C.C.C. nightclub.

Police said he is a cousin of Keith Bender Jr., the bouncer who was allegedly shot by Proof during the fight, which took place around 4:30 am Tuesday.

Sources told AllHipHop.com that the altercation was rooted in a pool game.

For unknown reasons, the two men began arguing and a fight broke out.

A shot was fired in the air, Proof allegedly pistol-whipped Bender, knocked him to the ground and then shot him.

Etheridge then allegedly opened fire on the rapper, striking him four times in the head and chest.

Authorities are still investigating the incident, but police said the 28-year-old was cooperating with authorities.

Bender, a former Sgt. in the United States Army, is on life support in critical condition.
