Another celebrity has suffered the tragic loss of a loved one. T-Pain’s niece, Javona Glover, was fatally stabbed outside a Tallahassee Walgreens earlier today (Aug. 30).
Glover was only 23 and was the mother of a 2-year-old daughter. Police arrived on the scene around 10:30 am and found her bleeding heavily. Unfortunately, she passed away before she could be treated at a hospital.
The killer is still on the loose. The Tallahassee Police Department released details about the suspect. They are looking for a “5-foot, 9-inch black male weighing about 160 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black T-shirt and white tennis shoes,” reports XXLmag.com.
T-Pain also asked for help via social media.

T-Pain is the latest celebrity to have a family murdered. Dwyane Wade’s 32-year-old cousin, Nykea Aldridge, was shot and killed last Friday (Aug. 26) in Chicago while pushing her 3-week-old baby in a stroller. She was caught in the crossfire of a shooting and police have arrested and charged two men in her murder.
If you have any information regarding Jovana Glover’s case, the Tallahassee Police Department can be reached at 850-891-4200 or 850-574-8477 (850-574-TIPS).
