Snoop Lion, the artist formerly known as Snoop Dogg, has become the latest high-profile contributor to give money toward the funeral of a 6-year-old girl shot in Moreno Valley last weekend.
His rep confirmed that he gave Tiana Ricks’ family an undisclosed amount in donations and feels her death was “heartbreaking.”
“Little 6-year-old girls are not supposed to die from a gunshot. But it keeps happening,” Snoop said. “From the mass shootings in Aurora and Newtown, to gang violence in the streets and murders in our own backyards, too many tears are being shed, too many young lives are being cut short. We need to come together to change this.”
