Young Thug’s nephew is in police custody after allegedly shooting his girlfriend in the face and killing her … TMZ Hip Hop has learned.
Fardereen Deonta Grier was arrested Wednesday after cops were called to a residence outside of Atlanta. East Point police spokeswoman Allyn Glover tells TMZ … when officers responded, Greer was crying and his girlfriend, Destiny Fitzpatrick, was dead in a pool of blood by the front door.
Glover says Greer told cops he’s Young Thug’s nephew, YT’s oldest sister’s son … but it’s unclear why he chose to share the information. A source close to Young Thug confirms the relationship.
As for what happened … we said Greer initially told responding officers he was fending off 2 armed, masked intruders, but officers say he eventually admitted to shooting Destiny in the face. A neighbor allegedly heard an argument inside the residence prior to the shooting.
Greer was arrested and charged with murder.
As you know, Young Thug is also currently in custody … on a wide range of RICO charges after being repeatedly denied bond. His fellow YSL artist, Gunna — also charged in the RICO case — was in court Thursday trying to be released on bail, but a judge denied it.
We’ve reached out to Young Thug’s legal team for comment on the Grier situation … so far no response.
