Dolph, whose real name is Adolph Robert Thornton, Jr, was shot and killed while at a Memphis cookie store on Wednesday. He was 36.

The man had "non-critical" injuries, police said.
"Officers immediately detained two suspects, and a third was detained at Kerr and Mississippi after a brief pursuit," Memphis police wrote on Twitter, adding that the shooting "is under investigation."
Police said Terrance Jones, Jailon Nelvis, and Tavis McQueen were arrested and charged in the incident.
