A charity event launched by rapper Rick Ross in his native Miami, Florida ended in violence on Wednesday, when gunshots were fired as the star hit the stage.

The Second Annual Rick Ross Be Out Day, which aims to provide local children with essential back-to-school items, descended into chaos just moments after the Hustlin' star and his Poe Boy Entertainment crew came out to perform at Carol City Park.

A source says, "He was giving back to the community when this happened. Rick and the whole Poe Boy team got on stage and that's when someone in the crowd started shooting." The event had been trouble-free up until that point, reports AllHipHop.com. It is currently unknown whether there were any injuries.

Police have arrested one man over the incident, while another assailant remains at large.
