On April 3, 2002, Alton "Buntry" McDonald (February 5, 1966 – April 3, 2002), a member of the Mob Piru Bloods and a production manager at Death Row Records,[1] was shot dead at a gas station in Compton, California. The murder was believed to be the result of fighting between two rival "sets" of the Bloods, the Mob Pirus and the Fruit Town Pirus.[2]
Authorities say a former production manager for Death Row Records was shot to death as he filled up his car at a gas station.
The spate of shootings under investigation stemmed from a rivalry between two Blood gangs, the Mob Pirus and the Fruit Town Pirus, law enforcement officials said.
