(Newser) – Rapper Rick Ross was shot at dozens of times while in his Rolls-Royce in Fort Lauderdale around 5am today, TMZ reports. The gunshots came from a car that had pulled up alongside, but none of them hit the Rolls-Royce, Ross, or a woman in the car. The car did crash into a building while trying to escape the gunfire, the Miami Herald reports. Ross had been celebrating his birthday and was shot at as he was leaving the restaurant, WSVN reports. The suspects are still at large.

None of the bullets hit the Rolls with a car right alongside?? Where or how the fk were the shooters aiming? Meanwhile that rapper looks like Jabba the Hut. Shouldn't expose that gut. Turns people's stomachs.

Pre-arranged for publicity.  A birthday present from his agent.
