I'm completely lost, Nipsey Hussle's girlfriend breaks silence over shooting

 Lauren and Nipsey had been together for five years.

Nipsey Hussle's girlfriend has broken her silence over the death of the 33-year-old Grammy-nominated rapper.

Lauren London posted a tribute to the late rapper on Instagram and said she was 'completely lost' at his sudden and violent death.

The 34-year-old started dating Nipsey in 2013 and they have a son together, two-year-old Kross.

She has now spoken out about her loss, hours after police in Los Angeles announced they had arrested a man in connection with Sunday's shooting.

Alongside a selection of pictures showing them together, she wrote: "I am completely lost I've lost my best friend, my sanctuary my protector my soul.... I'm lost without you, we are lost without you babe I have no words."

 Lauren London is "completely lost" following the death of Nipsey Hussle.

The Los Angeles Police Department said on Tuesday 29-year-old Eric Holder had been arrested in Bellflower, a city in south-east Los Angeles County and about 20 miles from where Nipsey was killed.

Police had issued a public appeal for Holder's whereabouts on Monday and in a statement after his capture thanked the public for its "heightened awareness/vigilance".

Nipsey was shot and killed outside his Marathon Clothing store on Sunday.

Two other people were shot but survived, the Los Angeles Police Department said.

A post-mortem examination found Hussle was killed by gunshots to the head and torso, according to the Los Angeles County Department Medical Examiner-Coroner.

The death was certified as a homicide, the coroner added.
