At 12:25 A.M. Wednesday
Tupac was on his way 
In to a Times Square Building
To record at an eight floor studio
With another rapper
But in the line
Shakur was shot several times
Including two graze wounds to the head
Tupac's lawyer said the attack
Appeared to be a set up.

Less than 24 hours after 
Being shot 5 times
On the way to a Manhattan recording studio
