Report alleged Sean Combs was behind incident

P. Diddy has labelled a report claiming he was behind the shooting of rapper Tupac Shakur in 1994 as "completely untrue".

A report linking Diddy with an attack on Shakur in New York had been published on the Los Angeles Times website.

According to BBC News, P. Diddy responded to the allegations saying: "It is beyond ridiculous and completely false. Neither (BIG) nor I had any knowledge of any attack before, during or after it happened.

"I am shocked that the Los Angeles Times would be so irresponsible as to publish such a baseless and completely untrue story."

Tupac Shakur was subsequently murdered in a similar shooting in 1996 in Las Vegas.

Diddy was definately behind the first time that Tupac got shot, but there was no second time. Tupac faked his death. Theres no denying
