The victim is currently in critical condition at the hospital.

A Lil Baby concert in Memphis ended in the worst way possible on Thursday night. The show was taking place at the FedEx Forum, which is also the home of the Memphis Grizzlies. Overall, the show was going smoothly until a shooting took place close to the stage. According to ABC News, the shooting took place just before 10:30 PM, which means Baby would have been on stage for about 30 minutes.

As the report explains, a man was shot on the scene. He subsequently had to be wheeled out of the arena. However, the man who did the shooting is unknown and is reportedly still on the run. The police are currently conducting an investigation into the matter. In regard to the man who was injured, he is staying at the Regional One Health Medical Center in critical condition. It goes without saying that the show was eventually canceled as the entire arena was evacuated.
