ATLANTA — Channel 2 Action News has learned that famous rapper Waka Flocka Flame was at an Atlanta recording studio earlier this month when three men opened fire.

According to the police report obtained by Channel 2's Michael Seiden, Waka -- whose real name is Jauquin Malphurs -- was one of about a dozen people at Uptown Studios on April 4. 

Police said when officers arrived at the studio, witnesses told them at least three men fired several shots into the building. The police report said one person was shot in the arm.

Waka wasn’t injured in the shooting, and investigators haven’t said if they believe he was the intended target.

Channel 2 Action News stopped by the studio last week and we were told "no comment" by an unidentified man.
