CeeDee’s mother — Felicia Lamb — was allegedly struck by a bullet while exiting the hotel lobby. A nearby eyewitness told TMZ:
“There was this loud pop, then people started screaming. I saw a woman fall, clutching her side. Then someone shouted, ‘That’s CeeDee Lamb’s mom!’”
🚑 Condition Update
Felicia Lamb was quickly rushed to a nearby trauma center. According to hospital sources, she sustained a gunshot wound to the torso but remained conscious throughout transport. Doctors say she is currently in stable condition and undergoing treatment, with family members reportedly en route.
A nurse present at the ER said:
“She was incredibly calm for someone who just got shot. When we realized who she was, the room went dead silent.”
🔍 The Suspect: Shane D. Tamura
