Gunman Opens Fire At French Montana's Tour Bus In Philadelphia. 1 Person Dead, Another Injured [Video]

1 person is dead this morning and another is injured after shots were fired at French Montana's tour bus outside of a Holiday Inn in Philadelphia overnight.

Authorities say the rapper and his entourage were hanging out with fans when someone drove by and opened fire. A 27-year-old man was shot in the stomach, according to NBC Philadelphia. He was rushed to Hahnemann University Hospital were he was pronounced dead. Another person was hit in the shoulder by a bullet. That person is listed in stable condition at Jefferson University Hospital.

"It's just ignorant. You fire into a crowd and you're gonna hit somebody. In this case, unfortunately, someone was killed. Don't know if they had anything to do with anything, if they were a fan or what," said Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey.

25 people, including French and his crew were questioned by police. Three people were taken into custody for carrying guns. Investigators say that someone inside the bus returned fired after the initial shots rang out.

So far, the police haven't located the drive-by shooter.

"When you find people like that, they should just never see the light of day again. I mean that kind of behavior's just unacceptable. For me, there's just no rehabilitation for anything like that," Ramsey said

Authorities said they didn't believe Montana or his crew were specifically targeted by the shooting, and that neither of the victims was connected to the rapper.

French had just returned from performing at Theatre of Living Arts in town when the shooting happened.
