Fans gather around a makeshift memorial for Ermias Ashgedom, better known as rapper Nipsey Hussle in the parking lot of his clothing store in the Crenshaw area of Los Angeles on March 31, 2019. Nipsey Hussle was shot dead in Los Angeles late Sunday, a day before he scheduled to meet with police to discuss gang violence. Hours before he was shot, Nipsey Hussle tweeted, "Having strong enemies is a blessing." Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI
