The funeral procession of Nipsey Hussle was tainted by more "senseless violence" on Thursday night – with one person shot dead and three others wounded, according to cops.
"We have to stop this," tweeted Michel Moore, Los Angeles Police Chief, who reported shooting on Twitter.
"The victims are 3 black men and a black woman – aged 30 to 50," Moore said. "Tragically we are dead."

The funeral procession of Hussle had begun earlier in the day and he was in the 103rd and main streets area when the shooting took place "in the middle," Moore said. The LAPD then reported that the shooting had occurred three blocks away from the motorcade route.
"Suspects in gray Hyundai fired on the victims," he tweeted.
Hussle, a gang member admitted to become an activist who tried to use his fame to help improve the Los Angeles community, was honored at a commemorative ceremony held at the Staples Center before his procession – which brought together 21,000 people.
The majority of the crowd took part in the 25km trip to his hometown and to his Marathon Clothing store where he was shot.
Thursday's shooting comes just weeks after two people were reportedly shot at a night vigil for Hussle. We do not know what triggered the last incident.
