Benzino was shot this afternoon while driving in his mother’s funeral procession.

According to published reports, police have already arrested a suspect – his nephew Gai Scott, 36. Scott was arrested by Plymouth police and charged with assault with intent to murder.

“There has been growing family tension between Raymond Scott and Gai Scott,” Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy J. Cruz said in a statement. ”At some point when the cars were side by side, Gai Scott fired several shots into the red Dodge SUV being driven by Raymond Scott.”.

Allegedly, Benzino – former owner of The Source magazine and “Love & Hip-Hop” reality star – was shot after an argument erupted between family members in the funeral procession.

Benzino was hit and he was rushed to the hospital.

TMZ reports that the funeral went on.

Benzino is currently in the hospital in stable condition.
