James Brown’s Son-in-Law Murdered

Posted by Bossip Staff

Darren Lumar has been killed according to a report by Livesteez:

The son-in-law of the late soul singer James Brown was shot to death Wednesday (Nov. 5) night in the garage of his Buckhead home. Relatives of Darren “Chip” Lumar told the news station they believe the killing was a hit. Investigators said the shooter was waiting for Lumar.

“When he drove up to park his car in the garage, he was confronted. An altercation of some sort took place. That’s when the victim was shot multiple times,” said Atlanta police Officer Eric Schwartz.

The neighborhood where Lumar lived is a gated community. “I think it was somebody that knew him,” Schwartz said.

Witnesses said after the gunman shot Lumar, it appeared the perpetrator was side-stepping away, as if he was looking to see if anyone was watching him. The witnesses said he then rounded a corner, possibly jumping a fence, and got into a car that was waiting for him, reports CBS46.com.

This story reeks of foul play, and hopefully they bring closure to this matter very quickly so the family can start to grieve appropriately. It just seems like this family is plagued with excess drama and misfortune. SMH
