DaBaby (aka Jonathan Kirk) shot and killed 19-year-old Jaylin Craig, which the rapper has consistently claimed was in self-defence.The incident took place on November 5 2018 at a Walmart in Huntersville, North Carolina. On April 24, Rolling Stone published security footage that it says shows the lead-up to the shooting and its aftermath and appears to potentially contradict the rapper’s version of events.According to Kirk, two young men – Craig and his friend Henry Douglas – approached and allegedly threatened the rapper while he was at the store shopping with his then-partner and children.
Kirk fired the gun that killed Craig, Kirk has always claimed, to protect himself and his family.In the newly published surveillance footage, Kirk can be seen lunging towards at Douglas and punching him. Craig can be seen reaching for a firearm from his waistband but tucking it back in, then attempting to break up the fight between Kirk and Douglas.The footage then shows an uninvolved shopper fleeing, presumably after Kirk had fired his gun, as he then reappears in the frame and puts the weapon back in his pocket.DaBaby shot and killed 19-year-old Jaylin Craig in 2018, a shooting the rapper claims was in self-defense.
