One of Snoop Dogg's bodyguards was injured after shots were fired at the rap star, above, and his entourage, according to police.

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- A shooting in Los Angeles Thursday night struck a convoy of cars, one of which was carrying rapper Snoop Dogg.

Authorities said one of the musician's bodyguards was injured. Snoop Dogg was not hurt.

Police said up to five cars were traveling through the Mid-City area when the shooting happened at about 9 p.m. (PST). The rap star's entourage included seven bodyguards -- five were from the Inglewood school district and two were state parole officers.

Another car pulled alongside the convoy and three men with guns opened fire, said police Officer Don Cox, a police spokesman. Bullets hit two of the vehicles.

The wounded man, an off-duty police officer with the Inglewood Unified School District, was shot in the back, police Sgt. Brian Owen said. The man, whose identity was not immediately available, was taken to a hospital and released early Friday, Owen said. It was unclear whether he was in the same vehicle as Snoop Dogg.

Owen said it appears that one of the shooters wanted to speak with the rapper, whose real name is Calvin Broadus. Words were exchanged, followed by gunfire. It wasn't immediately known what was said.

No arrests have been made.

Police questioned Snoop Dogg, the bodyguards and other people who were with him. Owen said he didn't expect them to be booked for a crime

thats fucked up? Ppl still tying to hurt snoop need to lay off.

Umm... maybe its just me.. but isn't someone always out to kill snoop dogg??? yea..

probably related to the Snoop/Death Row beef

yea sug did it he was looking for dre w/a bunch of mexicans before 2

yeah, its a little TOO coincidental that this shit happened less than a year after "pimp slapped" came out

damn, we cant lose snoop. that would suck beyond belief.

lol thisl just give him more fuel for going on about how gangster he is, like when his bodyguard shot sum1 and he was going on about how he killed him

^^^snoop never said he killed him, he always said he was innocent. and snoop doesnt even do gangster rap anymore now he is tring to be a pimp

snoop is just a cool mother fucker I don't know why people would want to kill him

yo....just think about it...

If Snoop would have been just sitting somewhere else or if the attackers just changed their angles we could have lost another legend in the game..
