One of Remy's friends spoke to All Hip Hop about the shooting. This is what she said:
"Everyone was good the entire party, until we went outside and Makeda tried to quickly slip away. She has stolen from Remy before and Remy forgave her the first time. Remy even paid Makeda's rent before, when she spent her money on shopping and her sorry a** boyfriend couldn't help out."
According to the woman, who said she witnessed the entire event, Barnes-Joseph exited her vehicle and the two women argued in the street.
"Remy never got in her [Barnes-Joseph's] car. Makeda threatened Remy in front of everyone and stated that she didn't take her money. She also threw her purse at Remy to check and that's why Remy had her purse and emptied the contents. Remy didn't even have a gun on her."
Remy Ma's friend said that she and the others in the entourage walked up to the two women as they were arguing and that's when shots rang out.
"Makeda's boyfriend threatened Remy," the woman said. "All I know is, as soon as I turned, Makeda was on the ground saying she got shot, but Remy never had a pistol in her hand."
The woman said everyone fled because the police were enroute to the scene of the shooting.
(AHH)
