Bx. drill rapper gets probation charge tossed

Bronx teen drill rapper C Blu came closer Thursday to being fully cleared in a January police shooting case when city lawyers threw out a probation violation charge against him.

The probation violation was the only pending charge in the January incident against the 16-year-old “No Ozone” rapper, born Camrin Williams.

City attorneys could still bring formal juvenile charges against Williams, but have declined to make a decision on that issue since the case was moved from adult to Family Court in March.

In the meantime, Williams faces no criminal charges in the shooting.

“This is big,” said Williams’ lawyer, Dawn Florio. “We are hopeful that this is a sign that no new charges will be brought because of the illegal conduct of the police officers.”

The case against Williams stemmed from an incident Jan. 18 in which a gun Williams was carrying went off as he scuffled with cops trying to detain him.

The bullet struck Williams in the groin, and hit a cop in the leg. None of the injuries were life-threatening.

The case made headlines when Williams was initially released on $250,000 bail. Mayor Adams slammed his release at the time, saying New Yorkers should be “outraged” that Williams was back out on the streets following the shooting.

But while cops initially said Williams was part of a “disorderly crowd” and refused orders to remove his hands from his pockets, a Bronx judge found one officer to be not credible.

Also, the judge said, body cam footage of the incident showed her there was “zero reason for any of those officers to approach this individual.”

The probation violation charge stemming from the January incident accused Williams of violating the terms of his sentence in a gun possession case he picked up at age 14.

But with the Law Department lawyers deciding to drop the probation violation, Florio said it seemed unlikely they would later bring more charges against Williams.

A cheerful Williams attended court Thursday with his girlfriend and mother, but the “Fresh Home” rapper will not have any more court dates unless city lawyers decide to charge him.

The rapper told the Daily News he is working on an EP that he hopes to release soon.
