The post for the late rapper said, “Gone in body, but your NAME & LEGACY will live forever! 💙” The Houston Police Department have reportedly gotten a hold of footage they are reviewing, revealing what happened to the rapper. “It looks like he backed in there (the ditch) accidentally. Then the other vehicle pulled up, and folks got out of the car. They were talking for a little bit, and then all of a sudden, gunfire went off. Only one shot, actually,” said Houston Police Department Lt. R. Wilkens. As of now, police haven’t identified any suspects.
