Takeoff, a member of the popular hip-hop trio Migos, was shot and killed on November 1 (local time). Meanwhile, the shooter is still at large, Page Six and other news outlets in the U.S. report.
At least two handguns were used at the scene of the incident.
The incident occurred just after 2:30 a.m. on November 1 (U.S. time). A man was shot at 810 Billiards & Bowling Houston, a bowling alley in Houston, Texas, according to a police report.
At the time, Migos’ takeoff and Quayvo were playing a “dice game” with friends when something caused an argument, and someone fired shots at the takeoff. The cause of the argument is not known at this time, but it is confirmed that at least two handguns were used at the scene of the incident.
Takeoff, who was shot in the head, was already dead when police arrived on the scene, but Quayvo, who was with him, was reportedly screaming frantically for help beside Takeoff, who had been shot.
It was also revealed from the scene where Takeoff was shot and killed that there was a victim who was injured and ran to a nearby hospital on his own. The victims were a 23-year-old man and a 24-year-old woman, and both were listed as having non-life-threatening injuries.
The shooter who shot and killed the takers is still at large, according to a new release from the Houston Police Department. Police are urging the public to help and provide more information.

Sgt. Michael Arrington, the lead investigator on the case, said, “We are asking for any information at this time. We know that the media has received many calls, messages, tweets, and videos. We need you to submit that to the police,” he said.
The sergeant added, “We want to find justice for the Takeoff family. The family is going through a really tough time…” and “What if this was your brother? What if it was your son? Please stand up for us,” he urged.
The police chief also said that he had spoken to people who were close to Takeoff, and they all said he was a “peaceful man.
With so many rappers in trouble or killed in recent years, the chief said, “I’m calling on hip-hop artists in Houston and across the country. We must police ourselves. We all need to stand together and make sure that no one is tearing this industry apart,” he said, calling on the entire industry.
