Migos rapper Takeoff is dead after he was shot and killed early Tuesday morning (Nov. 1) in Houston, Texas. He was 28 years old.
The news was first reported via social media, and TMZ has since confirmed the reports:
Law enforcement sources, and multiple witnesses, tell us the fatal incident went down shortly after 2:30 AM … that’s when cops got the call for a man shot at a bowling alley called 810 Billiards & Bowling Houston.
We’re told Takeoff and Quavo were there playing dice when an altercation broke out and that’s when someone opened fire, shooting Takeoff … either in the head or near to his head. He was pronounced dead on the scene.
TMZ Hip Hop has obtained footage from the scene, and you can see Quavo — in an orange shirt — and others gathered around Takeoff. At first they tried to move him, but then put him back down, and Quavo yelled for someone to get help.
We’re told as many as 2 other people were also shot, and they were taken to a hospital. It’s unclear what their conditions are. Quavo was not injured.
