Superstar rapper Cam’ron was shot in Washington, DC this morning (Oct. 23) around 2:30 am sources have revealed to AllHipHop.com.
The Harlem, New York native was leaving club H20 en-route to Love (formerly Dream) when three unknown gunmen approached the rapper.
While details are sketchy, eyewitnesses said the men were seeking the rapper’s pricey Lamborghini, which he was driving while in town for a performance over the weekend.
“They were after that car,” an eyewitness told AllHipHop.com. “Cam refused to give it up and attempted to drive away and they shot up the car.”
Cam’ron was struck at least once and while officials have not released his actual status, Cam's publicist at Susan Blond confirmed the rapper was shot at least twice - once in each arm.
His injures are allegedly not life threatening and the rapper was treated at Howard University Hospital.
“Juelz, Jim [Jones] and other Dip-Set members are with him at the hospital right now,” the source said.
Cam’ron, CEO of Diplomat Records, has been driving the blue Lamborghini since at least June of 2005.
"I bought the Lamborghini especially for New York," Cam'ron told a 106 & Park audience prior to being arrested. “Because we figure that we can only see stuff like this in Miami, but I am bringing it to the streets of New York."
In July, police in Harlem stopped the rapper and arrested him while driving the Italian sports car for driving with a suspended license.
Officials at Howard University Hospital declined comment and police did not comment at press time.
Representative for Susan Blond, the company that handles Cam's publicity issued the following statement to AllHipHop.com:
"Cam'ron was shot in Washington DC. He is currently OK, resting and recovering."

キャムロンがカージャックに遭遇、銃撃を受ける。 [2005年10月25日]
ディプロマッツ(the Diplomats)のリーダー、キャムロン(Cam'Ron)ことCameron Gilesが、2月に公開予定の同タイトルの映画と新アルバム"Killa Season"のプロモーションの一環としてHoward大学のホームカミングイベントに参加するため滞在していたワシントンDCで、23日未明にカージャックに遭い、腕に2発の銃弾を受けたという。
事件に関する警察側の発表はないものの、キャムロンのマネージャーJoseph Sherman氏を含む関係者が語ったところによると、地元の人気クラブH20でライブ終了後、午前2時すぎにキャムロンは愛車の青いランボルギーニを自ら運転して後にし、信号で止まったすきにカージャックに遭った模様。車を渡すことを拒み、走り去ろうとしたキャムロンに犯人が発砲し、腕に2発の銃弾を受けた。キャムロンはその後も自分で運転してHoward University病院まで行き手当てを受けたとのことで大事には至らなかったようだ。病院には、それぞれの新作アルバムのプロモーションで来ていたディプロマッツのメンバー、ジュエルズ・サンタナ(Juelz Santana)とジム・ジョーンズ(Jim Jones)が駆けつけたという。
23日の夕方には、静養のために自宅のあるニュージャージーに飛行機で戻ったとのこと。(t)
