'Mad Cops' The Main Culprit?
Following the shoot-out, DJ Akademiks revealed that a "heavy police presence" within their neighborhood.
According to Mirror UK, the DJ alleged that the rapper was "possibly raided" in connection to an ongoing investigation because shooting and other crimes had already happened in the area before the incident.

The couple shares a 3-year-old daughter named Willow Banks; it was not mentioned whether the kid was present when the shooting incident occurred.
