Quote[/b] ]Superstar rapper Cam’ron was shot in Washington, DC this morning (Oct. 23) around 2:30 am sources have revealed to AllHipHop.com.

The Harlem, New York native was leaving club H20 en-route to Love (formerly Dream) when three unknown gunmen approached the rapper.

While details are sketchy, eyewitnesses said the men were seeking the rapper’s pricey Lamborghini, which he was driving while in town for a performance over the weekend.

“They were after that car,” an eyewitness told AllHipHop.com. “Cam refused to give it up and attempted to drive away and they shot up the car.”

Cam’ron was struck at least once and while officials have not released his actual status, Cam's publicist at Susan Blond confirmed the rapper was shot at least twice - once in each arm.

His injures are allegedly not life threatening and the rapper was treated at Howard University Hospital.

“Juelz, Jim [Jones] and other Dip-Set members are with him at the hospital right now,” the source said.

Cam’ron, CEO of Diplomat Records, has been driving the blue Lamborghini since at least June of 2005.

"I bought the Lamborghini especially for New York," Cam'ron told a 106 & Park audience prior to being arrested. “Because we figure that we can only see stuff like this in Miami, but I am bringing it to the streets of New York."

In July, police in Harlem stopped the rapper and arrested him while driving the Italian sports car for driving with a suspended license.

Officials at Howard University Hospital declined comment and police did not comment at press time.

Representative for Susan Blond, the company that handles Cam's publicity issued the following statement to AllHipHop.com:


"Cam'ron was shot in Washington DC. He is currently OK, resting and recovering."

Cam's update..

Cam'Ron is in recovery in a D.C. hospital after a botched car-jacking attempt in DC left the Dipset capo wounded.

Cameron "Cam'Ron" Giles, was shot after midnight today while waiting at a light after leaving club H2O in South West, DC. The Harlem-rapper was in the DC area performing at various night clubs in celebration of Howard University's Homecoming Weekend.

Driving by himself, Cam'ron was approached by the car-jacker shortly after becoming separated from his security on Water Street. While Cam'Ron was sitting at a red light, the assailant approached the car, grabbed at the door, and motioned for Cam'Ron to get out of the vehicle. Refusing to give up his royal blue 2006 Lamborghini, the assailant then fired several shots at Cam'Ron. One of the bullets plowed through his arm and traveled into the other.

Wounded and bleeding, Cam'ron then managed to drive himself to Howard University Hospital. DC police immediately recovered the assailant's vehicle and cell phone.

Dipset member, Juelz Santana, was in town to promote his forthcoming sophomore album, What The Game's Been Missing and Jim Jones who was additionally in town promoting his newly released album, Diary of A Summer. They both arrived at Howard University Hospital minutes after Cam'Ron's admittance. Cam'ron is listed in stable condition.

"Cam'Ron will be just fine. He's in good spirits. He's cracking jokes and is expected to be released shortly. He even asked the nurse for her phone number when he woke up", says his Manager, Joseph Sherman of New Era Entertainment.
