Rapper shoots and pistol-whips his 'best friend' during music video in fight over who is the 'star'

Shocking security camera footage released by the NYPD shows the moment a music video shoot descended into violence when one rapper shot his 'best friend' five times before pistol whipping him as he lay on the ground on Saturday.

After the vicious argument has been settled, five people step over the 37-year-olds twitching body as they attempt to leave following the disturbing attack and not one of them stops to help the victim.

According to owner Ali Abdul, speaking to the New York Daily News, 'They were fighting over who’s the star, who’s better. They were drunk. They spit at each other then one guy pulled out a gun and shot the other guy five times.'
