AceShowbiz - Hip-hop legend Reverend Run (Rev Run)'s daughter Angela Simmons is "numb" with pain after her baby's father was fatally shot at his Atlanta, Georgia home.
Police were called to Sutton Tennyson's neighbourhood on Saturday, November 03, after receiving calls reporting "shots fired".
They found the 37 year old dead in his garage, and while initial reports suggested he had been killed in a home invasion, authorities insist that is not the case.
According to TMZ.com, officers believe Sutton had been standing in his driveway talking to another man, when the conversation turned violent and a gun was pulled. The suspect fled the scene of the crime in a car.
Cops have yet to publicly identify the suspect, or make an arrest in the case.
The tragic news has left Sutton's ex, fashion designer and reality TV star Angela, heartbroken, and in an emotional tribute on Instagram, she vowed to protect their two-year-old son, Sutton Jr., as best she can.
The 31 year old shared a snap of father and son and captioned it, "Thank you for leaving behind my greatest gift . I'm hurting . I'm numb".
"Thank you for the out pouring of love everyone . I cant believe I'm even saying Rest In Peace Sutton . I promise to hold SJ down in every way I promise (sic)".
Angela, who previously dated rapper/actor Romeo Miller, revealed she was single as she rang in 2018. She began dating Tennyson in 2015 and announced their engagement in April, 2016, just five months before the couple welcomed its only child.
The pair was reported to have secretly tied the knot in late 2016, but never confirmed or denied the claims.
