Takeoff was shot and killed in the early hours of Tuesday (November 1) in Houston, Texas, and police are looking for witnesses to assist in the investigation.
According to a police report, at least 40 people attended a private event held at 810 Billiards and Bowling in Houston, where the Migos member was shot and killed outside. Video footage from the aftermath of the incident showed people scattering for safety and leaving the scene.
Authorities are asking attendees and other witnesses to help identify the gunman and any additional tips that can help solve Takeoff’s murder. The 28-year-old was fatally wounded after an argument outside the venue turned violent and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Quavo, who was with Takeoff at the time of the shooting, was unharmed. Two other victims were transported to nearby hospitals with gunshot wounds, according to police.
“We’re looking for anything to help us from there,” Sgt. Michael Arrington said at a press conference. “We want to find justice for [Takeoff’s] family. They’re going through a lot right now. And the only thing that we can do is hope that y’all reach out and assist us in any way to lead to evidence that will help us to apprehend and get charges and arrest on the person responsible for the death of Takeoff.”
Houston Police Chief Troy Finner added, “I just want to say something to our city, Houston, and every brother and sister in the neighborhoods. I’m calling you to action to step up. There were 40 people at least at this event, and people left, possibly out of fear.
“Actually, one thing — and I want this to resonate with everybody. What if it was your brother? What if it was your son? You’d want somebody to step up. So please, step up. Get the information to us so we can bring some closure to this family who’s hurting right now.”
The Hip Hop community has been reeling ever since news of Takeoff’s passing circulated online. Many artists, including Gucci Mane, Killer Mike, Joe Budden and more, reacted to his death with posts on social media.
Black People are notorious for not liking to talk to the police, and now they want “justice”. I wonder what that renowned terrorist organization BLM aka Burn Loot Murder gotta say about this incident?!!
Fuck u
You’re right
Someone should talk..there were a lot of people there. I don’t care about the no snitch crap. That shooting was pointless. Nobody should be getting shot over dice. That’s a brain-dead move done by a foolish person.
fucked if i know.
He was shot by friendly fire from his own man, what a stupid death. Police and gotta have no question regarding the suspect LOL.
He was shot because of Quavo’s argument with someone by friendly fire from his own man, what a stupid death. Police and gotta have no question regarding the suspect LOL.
Why don’t they just ask huncho?
Exactly. Quavo saw everything
Looks like he crapped out.
Looks like you should drink a full glass of STFU!
This whole ‘no snitching’ culture is some f*ckin bullsh*t!!! If someone did you wrong or you see someone wronged, open your f*ckin mouth!! R.i.p to this brother man.

Over 100 black doctors and lawyers and nurses entered the field last year. You just rarely hear about our major accomlishments because they want to keep this perception of us. There are many succes stories. But you won’t hear about it So I understand your ignorance
Guess he´ll be [tack]ing [off] from work in future…
Soon there will be a posthumous Takeoff or Migros album and Takeoff will be featured on many rapper’s songs. A dead man’s music sells.

Mob Ties is a gang ran by J.Prince’s son that extorts other rappers visiting Houston for features & verses in exchange for protection.They make you check ✔️ in with them to get a pass while visiting TX.Wasn’t to long ago we were reading about them shutting down Tekashi’s show & wouldn’t let him perform at the South by South West concert series in Austin for not checking in.Who remembers Birdman & Waynes bus getting robbed for hundreds of thousands of dollars when they performed in Houston? It happened bc Jas Prince discovered Drake & introduced him to Wayne . Cash money was supposed to pay Prince a discovery fee but in true Birdman fashion never paid up so the result was getting robbed in Houston. Who remembers N.B.A. YoungBoy’s car keys ending up with J.Prince after his house got broken into & Prince demanding a meeting YoungBoy refused? Mob Ties operates like Big Polly in the movie Goodfellas.They offer protection in the form of some type of payment & in this case it verses from rappers.Zro said it in one of his songs when he left Rap A Lot how he wanted to pay Gucci Mane for his verse on Haters Got Me Wrong song. 🇨🇱
I did it.
I’m keeping positive energy. I believe this case will be solved in this month. Even sooner than we all expect.
