Troy Ave Has Been Indicted in Connection to Irving Plaza Shooting

Troy Ave has been indicted in connection to the fatal shooting at Irving Plaza that left one person dead and three injured last month.

The New York Daily News reports that Troy Ave—real name Roland Collins—did not appear in Manhattan Criminal Court when his case was called earlier this morning. However, prosecutor Christine Keenan told the court that the grand jury had voted on the high-profile case, and she plans on filing an affirmative grand jury action as soon as possible.

Collins was arrested on attempted murder and weapon charges after the NYPD released a graphic video depicting him firing off shots inside the venue. It is unclear if he shot himself before or after the video that was posted online.

While his court date originally got pushed back due to his hospitalization, today’s announcement of his indictment didn’t reveal whether or not his charges were upgraded to something more severe. He is scheduled to appear in court on June 22, where his indictment will be read to him.

During his incarceration, the Brooklyn-bred rapper has released a new mixtape proclaiming his innocence. On the opening freestyle, he raps, “Pussy nigga tried to assassinate me / I took the gun from him and turned the tables ‘round like a G.”
