Lexington, KY (CNS) - Kentucky police are looking to question two members of rapper Flo Rida's entourage after allegations of animal abuse have been reported. The rapper, real name Tramar Dillard, is currently out on tour promoting his latest album, R.O.O.T.S., and traveling around the country to perform at various venues.

Witnesses have come forward to allege that they saw two of the rapper's group killing a rabbit in Lexington, Kentucky, where Flo Rida had an in-store appearance on Wednesday, March 25. The witnesses say the two men killed the animal for no apparent reason and then boarded back on the tour bus to leave the area.

Authorities are attempting to track down the tour bus and question the men believed to be involved. So far, the Lexington Police, Kentucky State Police and Lexington Animal Control have launched an investigation into the claims.

Flo Rida's next stop on his tour is scheduled for Columbus, Ohio. There is no word yet if the rapper himself was involved in the alleged incident or if authorities will be waiting for the group when they arrive.
