According to a TMZ report, the shooting took place after a dispute between the parties in the area. The Gwinnett County police are currently investigating the case as a homicide. However, the motive behind the attack remains unclear.
Following the attack, the rapper was provided medical service by the first responders and then was transported to the local area hospital, where he succumbed to the injuries, the report added.
One has been arrested in connection with the shooting and is being interviewed by the police.
T-Hood's mother, Yulanda, confirmed to TMZ that her son was shot at the residence, where he lived. She also denied that a party was going on at the time.
Well-known in the Southern rap scene, T-Hood's musical credits include songs like 'Ready 2 Go,' 'No Secret,' and 'Perculator.'
