Former 2 Live Crew rapper Luther "Luke" Campbell was the victim of a hate crime Monday (June 5) at his Miami Lakes home. Miami-Dade Police are investigating the incident, which involved someone throwing a concrete landscaping block at the windshield of Campbell’s rental car. The person, who got as far as Campbell’s driveway before throwing the block, shattered the windshield and left a note with biblical scriptures. Racial slurs were handwritten on the note as well as a message that read: "you better sign or die." "Whoever did it, I guess, is some kind of sick character," Luke told CBS4 News. "And I hope they don’t go too far." Despite his sexually-charged image as a solo artist and member of 2 Live Crew, Campbell said he has never been the victim of such a crime, not even when he resided in Liberty City. Police currently have no suspects in the case. Anyone with information is encouraged to call Miami-Dade Crimestoppers at 305-471-TIPS.
