LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - A famous rapper’s DJ is out of jail on home incarceration after being accused of murder.

Ronnie O’Bannon is accused of shooting and killing 37-year-old Kasmira Nash at the Vibes Restaurant & Ultra Lounge.

O’Bannon was arrested more than a week after Nash, a bartender at the club, was shot.

His lawyers argued in court for him that it was done in self-defense.

Video of what happened in the club that night showed the two in a confrontation before the shooting happened.

O’Bannon was originally charged with murder and tampering with evidence for the shooting.

He’s also a person of interest in another shooting case at the X-Clusive club in Shively, but police there say more witnesses need to come forward.

His bond is was $50,000, reduced from the initial $500,000.

On his bail conditions, he won’t be able to live in a home with weapons, and won’t be able to contact the Nash family.

O’Bannon is known as “Lucci”, a DJ for the rising star Jack Harlow.
