Investigators are still probing whether the shooting had any direct link to Lucci or the video being filmed.
The 29-year-old rapper, whose real name is Rayshawn Lamar Bennett, was filming the music video in an apartment complex in the southeastern part of the city, Atlanta police told WGCL-TV, but he was not on the scene when authorities arrived.
