Eminem protégé Obie Trice was shot in Detroit on New Year's Eve. The rap star was driving along the the city's Lodge freeway in the early hours of 31 Dec with his girlfriend when his car came under fire.

The shots were fired from another vehicle through the back window of Trice's car, causing the rapper minor injuries. He managed to continue driving until he was able to exit the freeway, before pulling over, at which point his uninjured girlfriend managed to flag down passing police.

Trice was taken to the Providence Hospital in Detroit and was later discharged. Michigan State Police, meanwhile, have launched an investigation into the incident, but as yet have no suspects.
