The alleged shooter of Atlanta rapper Dolla was formally charged with murder Wednesday in Los Angeles, though his lawyer said the Snellville music promoter was acting in self-defense.
Aubrey Louis Berry, 23, also faces felony assault charges for shooting at the rapper’s cousin, Wilbert Robinson, and Sidiq Abawi, a friend and recording partner. Both men escaped the gunfire that killed Dolla, born Roderick Anthony Burton II.
Berry, who was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport carrying a loaded 9mm handgun, faces life in prison if convicted.
Investigators are still trying to determine a motive, one that might trace back to Atlanta. Robert “Bull” Shaw, manager of Platinum 21 Adult Entertainment, said Dolla was involved in an altercation at the strip club roughly two weeks ago.
