FOREST HILL, Texas – Authorities are investigating a deadly shooting that occurred Monday morning at Slappy’s Express Car Wash on Forest Hill Drive, resulting in the deaths of two individuals.
According to law enforcement officials, officers and emergency responders arrived at the scene and confirmed two fatalities.
Aerial footage from local media outlets revealed a large crime scene marked with numerous evidence markers.
A family member at the scene identified the victims as North Texas rapper G$ Lil Ronnie, also known as Lil Ronnie “Chuckie” Smith, and his 5-year-old daughter.
“He was a rapper. He didn’t bother anybody. He wasn’t targeting anyone. He was a family man, and he was focused on his music. Why would someone target him?” said Stella Houston, the victim’s aunt.
The tragic incident drew a significant crowd, prompting authorities to call in additional officers for crowd control.
As of now, the Forest Hill Police Department has not released an official statement regarding the circumstances of the shooting.
The identities of the victims have not been formally confirmed by authorities, and no suspect information has been disclosed.
It remains unclear whether a suspect has been apprehended or remains at large.

OMAHA, Neb. — At approximately 5:00 p.m., officers with the Omaha Police Department (OPD) and personnel from the Omaha Fire Department (OFD) responded to reports of an active shooter and multiple victims at the University of Nebraska Omaha (UNO) Criss Library, located at 6401 University Drive.
The initial 911 call reported a mass casualty incident involving an active shooter with several individuals down inside the library.
In response, multiple law enforcement and emergency medical units were immediately dispatched to the scene.
Upon arrival, officers conducted a comprehensive search of the building and surrounding area.
No victims, evidence of gunfire, or active threat were located.
After clearing the scene, authorities determined that the report was false and appears to have been a swatting call — a deliberate act of making a false emergency report to prompt a large police response.
The Omaha Police Department has confirmed that there was no danger to the public or the university community at any time.
The incident remains under investigation to identify the source of the false report.
Swatting is a serious criminal offense, and those found responsible can face federal and state charges.
