Homicides detectives are investigating a series of recent shootings that they suspect were committed by a new Tulsa, Oklahoma street gang dubbed The G-Unit.
According to News On 6 crime reporter Lori Fullbright, The G-Unit is named after 50 Cent's Rap crew and record label of the same name. Tulsa police says the local G-Unit is modeling themselves after the Queens rapper's gangsta image and is leading to waves of violence. Police also suspects the G-Unit to have been involved in six recent shootings.
According to gang unit chief, Sgt. Van Ellis, his officers first heard of G-Unit's presence in Tulsa 18 months ago -six months after 50 released his sextuple platinum debut Get Rich Or Die Trying. Authorities don't know how many members are involved, but strongly feel that more crimes are related to the gang.
"There have been some minor and more violent crimes, assaults, disturbances around school and community events and at schools and just bad behavior," Ellis revealed.
