According to the NY Daily News, Police and prosecutors are threatening to haul Busta Rhymes before a grand jury to force him to start talking about the murder of his bodyguard.
The investigation into the shooting death of Israel Ramirez at a Brooklyn video shoot has been stymied by the silence of witnesses, including the hip-hop star.
"Nobody has come forward," a frustrated Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said yesterday.
"No one has volunteered any information, even though there were possibly 50 people at the scene of this homicide."
The NYPD had already contacted Rhymes' attorney, seeking information from the rapper, who reportedly was only a few feet from Ramirez, 29, when he was gunned down Feb. 5.
But he has refused to cooperate, so now police are plotting a much more aggressive move.
They plan to sit down with Brooklyn prosecutors this week to explore the possibility of impaneling an investigative grand jury, Kelly said.
Ramirez's friends and family have urged Busta Rhymes to assist the NYPD with the probe into the death of the father of three, to no avail.
