a firearm to the rapper who was performing when gunfire broke out at an Arkansas
nightclub, while federal officials say one of the guard’s guns matched a shell
casing found at the scene.No one has been charged in the July 1 shooting at Little Rock’s Power Ultra
Lounge, which left 28 people injured. Kentrell Gwynn was in Little Rock federal
court Tuesday on a preliminary charge of providing a firearm to Ricky Hampton, a
Memphis, Tennessee, rapper and convicted felon who performs as Finese2Tymes.

Gwynn is also accused of providing armed security to a convicted felon and
conspiracy. Gwynn told a federal agent he was armed that night but did not shoot
at anyone.

shooting.
