Police Seek To Question DJ Webstar, Young B. As Witnesses To Shooting

Police are seeking to question the duo behind the hit single "Chicken Noodle Soup" after a shooting at a Halloween party in Harlem on Friday (Oct. 27) left a 13-year-old girl clinging to life.
Authorities believe
DJ Webstar and Young B may have witnessed the shooting of Mozena Jones, an honor student who was shot after the Halloween party at the Lehman Village Houses.
More than 100 teens were present at the function, where the group allegedly performed the hit single "Chicken Noodle Soup." After the party, which ended around 11:45 pm, numerous teens congregated near E. 106th street.
Jones stayed behind to help organizers of the party clean up, but as she was leaving shortly after midnight, a gunman drove by in a vehicle and shot into the crowd.
The 13-year-old was struck in the torso. The shot damaged several of Jones' vital organs, including her lungs, liver, spleen and colon.
She was rushed to
Harlem Hospital where surgeons operated on her several times in an attempt to save her life.
DJ Webstar and Young B's manager Kirk Burrowes denied DJ Webstar, born Troy Ryan and Young B, born Bianca Dupree even attended the party.
"Right now, we're looking for anyone who has information about the shooting," a police source told the New York Daily News. "There were a lot of people out there."
