Remy Ma, the female rapper who was suspected in a shooting early Saturday morning shortly after leaving Pizza Bar in the Meatpacking District, turned herself in and was questioned by police. According to The New York Times, Ma and the victim were arguing inside Pizza Bar, where they were attending a birthday party, about $3,000 that was missing from the rapper's purse. Makeda Barnes-Joseph––the woman who would eventually get shot––left the party with the rest of the group and got into her Nissan Maxima while Ma got into her Cadillac Escalade. Police believe the shooter got into Barnes-Joseph's car, shot her twice in the abdomen, and retreated to the Escalade, which sped off and crashed two blocks from the scene of the shooting.
The New York Post says that Makeda Barnes-Joseph, who is in stable condition at St. Vincent's Hospital, identified Remy Ma as her shooter. The rapper was charged with attempted murder shortly after turning herself in yesterday at 8 pm. The Daily News notes that Ma has been arrested before on gun, assault, and other charges. It also includeds a quote from the accused shooter that she liked to avoid violence. "'At the end of the day, I'm a girl,' she said. 'It's not like I roll up and shoot up everybody.'"

Al Sharpton: she was framed
At least Al Sharpton knows how to pronounce the word "ask". I've never heard the rev. say We are Axing the DA's office.....
anyway, great publicity for the rapper and pizza bar.
A rapper involved in a shooting! I am shocked!
I remember her from the "Lean Back" video! I just thought she was a sidekick. I didn't realize she was trying to shoot her way up the rap ranks. Geez.
This has been another episode of, When 'Keeping It Real' Goes Wrong."
The Rev.'s been laying low lately.
I didn't see him at Brooklyn Criminal Court or Kings County Hospital in front of the media re: the shooting of two police officers.
I didn't see him down in the Greenwich Village precinct house ... searching for justice in the case of "Remy Ma".
Vacation on the Vineyard, Al?
Rappers involved in gun play?
I am shocked given how they are such upstanding citizens.
pizza bar sucks.
What kind of idiot walks around NYC with $3,000 cash in her purse?
Hey, at least she got street cred. And about carrying 3g - don't some rappers have "they" crew carry thousands worth in "bling"??
First of all . To the poster using Al Sharpton's name here . No offense to anyone else here, but you need to get off Al Sharpton's dick ! It's not funny now and never will be . I admit Sharpton's the equivalent of an "Ambulance Chaser", but seriously it's time to let it go . Moving on, Why is it that Rap Cats continually place themselves in harms way . I mean here's one artist with somewhat of a future and what does she do ? She totally screws that up by getting involved in something that she could have probably walked away from . Unless there were blows thrown she should have walked away . Then again that's my point of view . Posted by "Still Not Amused"
pizza bar still sucks.
