UPDATE: Thankfully the injuries are said to be non-life threatening. However in a shocking twist, TMZ report that Yo Gotti and Young Dolph were staying at the same hotel and Gotti has now been named a person of interest. You’ll remember that earlier this year, Gotti’ artist Blac Youngsta turned himself in after accusations of firing over a hundred bullets at Dolph’s vehicle.
