Rapper Troy Ave, who is charged with attempted murder over a Manhattan concert shooting this year, was shot twice while sitting in his Maserati convertible at a New York City intersection Sunday, police said.

The 34-year-old and his girlfriend were on their way to spend Christmas Day with family when a gunman opened fire through the driver’s side widow of the car as he stopped at a Brooklyn traffic light around 4:20 p.m, according to law enforcement authorities. One bullet struck his the shoulder and another grazed his head, they said.

The rapper, whose real name is Roland Collins, managed to drive for a few more blocks until he crashed his car and a passerby took him to the nearest hospital. He was listed in stable condition.
