Ludacris' Manager Chaka Zulu Violently Stomped On Before Taking Bullet To The Chest & Exchanging Gunfire With Shooter
Ludacris' manager Chaka Zulu is still in critical condition as gruesome details emerge about his shocking shooting that left one man dead. RadarOnline.com has learned that Chaka was shot in the chest, near his heart, but not before being violently stomped and kicked in the Atlanta parking lot.
Surveillance video caught Sunday night's vicious attack that involved several men who jumped Chaka before one of them produced a gun and fired at least two shots.
The footage allegedly showed Ludacris' longtime music manager and business partner being approached by a man in the parking lot who immediately started arguing with Chaka.
The conversation got heated and allegedly turned physical when a female pushed the unidentified man away from Chaka. He bumped the music mogul's chest before Chaka grabbed his collar and all hell broke loose.
That's when three to four men entered the fight, knocking Chaka to the ground before kicking and stomping him.
According to sources, one of the men produced a gun and fired two shots. Chaka was reportedly able to get to his feet and exchanged gunfire with the shooter. He allegedly only fired one shot in self-defense.
