*Rapper Troy Ave escaped a murder charge, but was indicted on five other felonies in the shootout at T.I.’s concert last month in New York.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ, a grand jury has indicted Troy on one count of attempted second degree murder and four counts of criminal possession of a weapon.

Troy’s bodyguard, Ronald McPhatter, was killed during the exchange of gunfire, but testing on the bullets apparently showed it did not come from the weapon seen fired by Troy on surveillance video of the shooting.

Troy’s attorney, Scott Leemon, tells TMZ: “The video does not show everything nor explain what happened in the VIP room before Troy came running out, as a victim, after he was shot.”

Leemon says he will ask the judge to release Troy on bail this week at his next hearing.
