Authorities captured the suspected killer of Grammy-nominated rapper Nipsey Hussle on Tuesday afternoon, three days after he was fatally gunned down in Los Angeles. Eric Holder, 29, is accused of fatally shooting the 33-year-old rapper and injuring two of his friends in a tragic incident on Sunday that has garnered national attention. “Eric Holder, the suspected killer of Nipsey Hussle, has been arrested and is in police custody. Thank you to both our community for the heightened awareness/vigilance,” the LAPD tweeted Tuesday afternoon. Following mass protests, Los Angeles police issued an arrest warrant for Holder late Monday night, and urged him to “please surrender” in a press conference.
