Taking to Facebook amidst the concerns, the Police Service has noted that its outfit is abreast with the rumours circulating on social media and has taken immediate actions.
According to the Service, family members and close friends of the "My level" hitmaker have been contacted. However, none of those reached were able to provide details of the whereabouts of Shatta Wale.
"The attention of the Police has been drawn to the widely circulated news on the alleged gunshot-attack on one Charles Nii Armah Mensah popularly known as Shatta Wale.
"On hearing the news, the police have launched an investigation into the matter including making contacts with some of his close friends and family members and all of them claim not to have knowledge of his whereabouts or the alleged incident."
The Police further noted that a team that was deployed to the residence of the dancehall artiste was also unable to locate him.
Meanwhile, the Service says it continues to search every nook and cranny particularly the various hospitals in Accra for the musician.
