Baby Suga, 17-year-old niece of Trina was shot and killed in Miami, according to TMZ. On Wednesday (July 20) at 12:30 AM, Baby Suga – whose real name has not been disclosed – was gunned down in a triple shooting on Northwest 13th Avenue near 62nd Street in Liberty City. The 17-year-old, who was visiting Miami at the time, was pronounced dead at the scene. The two other victims were taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital, where their conditions are currently unknown.

The Miami Police Department released a statement about the shooting to XXL:
