Tragic news coming out of Louisville as EST Gee’s manager, Devontae Beach, was shot and killed after a concert EST Gee (George Stone) held in his hometown.
According to WLKY, the 31-year-old’s lifeless body was discovered inside a car in downtown Louisville during the wee hours of Sunday morning. Police found Devontae Beach’s body after responding to a call of gunshots on the 800 block of West Main Street around 1:30 a.m.
Local media outlet Wave3 reports that there were concerns about the security surrounding the concert at the KFC Yum! Center prior to the shooting.
Per Wave3:
The Yum! Center was aware of those concerns, multiple sources confirmed, but the concert happened anyway.
A spokesperson for the venue said they had enhanced security measures during the concert and that ensuring their staff and guests’ safety is paramount. They added the measures “effectively ensured a secure environment for everyone attending the concert.”
LMPD successfully increased their efforts inside the venue as well. Investigators know of the gang ties surrounding Stone’s crew.
In 2021, the FBI arrested several of Stone’s business partners including his previous manager, Eric Mosely, for gang related activity including guns and drugs. The trafficking organization, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, was “Everybody Shine Together,” or “EST” their press release stated. Stone, who has been shot twice himself, was not arrested in that raid.
As of press time, police have no suspects or motive for the killing.
EST Gee has yet to comment on the murder of his manager. RIP.
