Grammy award-winning rapper 'Lil Durk' was arrested in Florida by U.S. Marshals on a murder-for-hire charge, according to jail records.
Lil Durk, whose real name is Durk Devontay Banks, was arrested Thursday and booked at the Broward County Jail. He is being held without bail.
Prosecutors said the men allegedly targeted Quando Rondo in 2022 as retaliation for the 2020 murder of rapper King Von. The suit was filed on behalf of Weekly’s estate, as well as Davon Brinson and Cashae Williams, who were hurt during the shooting. "The complaint details how Lil Durk, King Von and their associates engaged in a conspiracy to murder FBG Duck, placing a $100,000 bounty on his life. It further outlines how OTF and its leadership used their platform to intimidate and eliminate rivals, resulting in FBG Duck's eventual killing. This strategy was part of a broader effort to control Chicago’s drill rap music scene. Drill rap is described as a subgenre of hip-hop music that originated in Chicago in the early 2010s.
