Man Murdered Outside Jay-Z/50 Cent Show


A 24-year-old man from Hamilton, Ontario, was murdered Tuesday night outside Toronto's Molson Amphitheatre following a concert featuring Jay-Z and 50 Cent. According to homicide Detective Cory Bockus, Msemaji Granger, who attended the concert with a group of friends, was approached by at least two men at around 10:20 p.m. as the show was ending. Numerous shots were fired at close range, hitting Granger in the upper body and head.

The gunmen then reportedly blended in with the crowd as they moved through the parking lot. Granger was taken to the hospital in critical condition and died yesterday (July 2). The shooting happened as a Canada Day fireworks display was concluding nearby at Ontario Place. Police now believe Granger was "targeted."

Jay-Z and 50 Cent's Rock the Mic tour plays Camden, N.J., tonight.
