A suspect has been arrested a month after the death of American rapper Takeoff in Houston. The 33-year-old was charged with murder, the Texas City Police Department said Friday. He allegedly shot and killed 28-year-old Takeoff – real name Kirsnick Khari Ball – on November 1 in Houston. In addition, a 22-year-old was reported in connection with the incident for illegal possession of weapons.
According to investigators, the fatal incident happened after a private party at a bowling alley. Shots were fired during an argument. Sergeant Michael Burrow described the rapper as an “innocent bystander” on Friday. He was unarmed and not involved in the altercation. “We’ve lost a good man,” said Chief of Police Troy Finner.
Along with rappers Quavo and Offset, Takeoff formed the Grammy-nominated group Migos from Atlanta, Georgia. Migos celebrated successes with hits such as “Versace”, “Bad and Boujee” and “MotorSport”. Thousands said goodbye at a large funeral service in mid-November. Musicians such as Drake, Justin Bieber, Chloe Bailey and Yolanda Adams also paid tribute to him. His family founded a foundation dedicated to community projects to combat gun violence. (sda/dpa)
