Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office issued arrest warrants for 33-year-old Atlanta man Jamichael Jones wanted in connection to the murder of Atlanta rapper Trouble.
Trouble, whose legal name is Mariel Orr, was shot and killed early Sunday morning outside an apartment complex in Conyers, Rockdale County Sheriff’s Department officials confirmed to CBS46 News.
Officials say Rockdale County Sheriffs deputies responded to the Lake St. James apartment complex located at 50 St. James Dr. in Conyers after reports of a shooting around 3:20 a.m. Police discovered Orr lying on the ground from a gunshot wound. He was transported to an area hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
“What we know and what I can tell you is that Mr. Mariel Orr was visiting a female friend at the apartment complex and Mr. Jamichael Jones did know the female and it was a domestic situation,” said Rockdale County Public Information Officer Jedidia Canty. “I know there are a lot of people that are really upset right now about the situation.”
Trouble’s ex-girlfriend Alexis Sky and collaborator Young Scooter also confirmed the news on their social media accounts.
Def Jam, the record label Trouble was signed to, released a statement on their Instagram account saying, “our thoughts and prayers are with the children, loved ones, and fans of Trouble. A true voice for his city and an inspiration to the community he proudly represented. RIP Scoob.”
Several rappers have posted messages sending condolences through their social media pages including fellow Atlanta rappers T.I., Gucci Mane and several others.
Trouble has collaborated with several artists including Drake and The Weekend, and fellow Atlanta area rappers Young Jeezy, 2 Chainz and Migos.
