Lil Durk had to end his concert in Chicago over the weekend after someone made a false report about an active shooter in the United Center.

To make matters worse, there were some people who began looting the rapper's merchandise store amid the chaos and confusion.

Lil Durk took to Instagram to address the incident, as well as the thieves: "Don't believe the hype we bigger then big thank you Chicago. Till next time and who all stole the merchandise tag me so I can repost y'all crazy a*s."

False Active Shooter Reports in Lil Durk's Concert

According to reports, Lil Durk's concert last Saturday ended in disaster after the local authorities received several calls that someone fired shots in Chicago's United Center.

Local authorities later found out that the reports were false, but the damage had been done. The concert ended in chaos and disarray as fans panicked to get out.

"We are working closely with authorities to investigate all incidents from last evening at the WGCI Summer Jam Show," a spokesperson for United Center said.

"It became apparent for all involved that ending the show early was in everyone's best interest as the safety of our guests and employees is a priority.

"We are thankful that initial incident reports were false, and guests exited the facility safely."

No one was injured in the process of evacuating the venue, reports noted. However, fans were definitely disappointed and annoyed when they found out about the false reports.

Fans Steal Lil Durk Merch Before Evacuating

As of this writing, Chicago's local authorities are yet to identify the individual or individuals who filed the false report about the active shooter.

There also is no word regarding all the individuals who looted Lil Durk's merchandise store.

Netizens called out the fans' bad behavior. "The hood never rests," one wrote.

"Not surprising."

"Risking your life for Lil Durk merch," another added with a skull emoji.

"Imagine your life being less important to you than some t-shirts. Sad."

"Welcome to Chicago," one wrote, while another added, "Welcome to Crimerica."

As of this writing, Lil Durk is yet to announce when he plans to reschedule if he even plans to reschedule, the concert again. It seems like he does not seem too keen on having a repeat of the events despite not being able to tour for some time.

After all, he was just recently hospitalized for severe dehydration and had to cancel several shows.
