love that he rocks a 2006 lamborghini and love that his manager is "big joe"



WASHINGTON - Police in the nation's capital say they're not convinced Cam'ron was the victim of a carjacking attempt.

The 29-year-old rapper, whose real name is Cameron Giles, was shot in both arms after leaving a party at a local night spot early Sunday morning. He said he was shot when someone tried to take his 2006 Lamborghini.

But The Washington Post quotes authorities as saying they're looking into several other potential motives. Among the theories: Cam'ron was shot at in an attempt on his life, he may have been attacked because of some personal beef, or he was shot at in a road-rage incident.

According to one official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, carjackers tend not to shoot a person first, but try to get them to leave the car.

Police also cite the fact that another vehicle with the rapper's friends was nearby when the shooting began. Investigators say a carjacker is unlikely to target his prey while others are around.

Cam'ron's manager, Big Joe, was quoted on Sunday as saying the shooting came as a result of a carjack attempt. He told the Post he feels the shooting "was a random act."

The rapper, whose hits include "Hey Ma" and "Oh Boy," will release his latest album, "Killa Season," in February. He also plans to release a film by the same name.
