He said: "Today tens of thousands gathered in tribute tp Nipsey Hussle. LAPD showed the world that the men and women of this Department are compassionate and without peer. They worked seamlessly with our community advocates to keep the peace. I'm grateful."
Hussle, who's real name is Ermias Ashgedom, was shot and killed on 31 March in the parking lot of his own shop, Marathon Clothing on West Slauson Avenue, in south Los Angeles.
