The Atlanta Police Department provided more details on the shooting at Monaco Hookah Lounge, which resulted in the death of Chicago rapper King Von and two others.

Police said the incident started with an argument between two large groups of people, which many have reported are King Von and Quando Rondo's entourages. Cops said the argument became physical and guns were drawn, leading to a shootout where five people were shot.

According to reports, two off-duty cops were present at the scene and attempted to intervene by firing their weapons. Currently, investigators can't say if the officers struck any of the five people but said it was highly likely. They're also not clear if either of the groups fired at the officers.

"There were two off-duty officers who were there working in a uniform capacity and of which one of them was actually next to his patrol car with his blue lights on," said Deputy Chief, Timothy Peek. "So visibility was there but again, unfortunately, the incident happened and so we're hopeful that with the GBI's [Geogia Bureau of Investigation] assistance we can get to the bottom of everything."

Peek added that none of the officers were injured and a sixth person was struck by a fleeing vehicle. Police are currently searching for the driver and those involved in the shooting.
