CHICAGO -- Chicago rapper Capo, a member of Chief Keef's "Glo Gang," was killed in a South Shore neighborhood shooting that resulted in a 1-year-old boy being fatally struck by a vehicle fleeing the gang-related attack Saturday afternoon the manager of Chief Keef said, according to CBS Chicago.

Marvin Carr, who went by the name "Capo," was the man killed in the attack, according to his former manager Renaldo Hess. A police source confirmed the identity of the victim to CBS Chicago.

The rapper, 22, was shot in the hip and back in a possible drive-by about 1:45 p.m. in the 7700 block of South Kingston, police said.

He was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where he later died, police said. However, as of Sunday morning, the Cook County medical examiner's office hadn't confirmed the death, reports the Chicago station.

Soon after the shooting, a vehicle hit 1-year-old Dillan Harris in a stroller as he and his mother waited for a bus at 63rd and Ellis, according to family and authorities. The boy died at the University of Chicago Comer Children's Hospital, reports the Chicago station.

Capo had recently returned from a recording session in Los Angeles, Hess said. According to CBS Chicago, two people were being questioned Sunday about the incidents said police.

"He was a good kid. The streets of Chicago is something," Hess said. "He was murdered. I don't understand what is going on with all these kids."

Mario Hess, Chief Keef's cousin and another member of his rap group who was known as "Big Glo," was gunned down in West Englewood in April 2014.
