    Just drove through the intersection in July. My uber driver was at the fight that night. He said there were cops in the srea as the shooting happened. Seemed to think they knew who did it.


    Interesting perspective.

    It would have been interesting to hear his thoughts on the constant police brutality/murder videos that are popping up given he was telling everyone this stuff was going on twenty-five years ago.

    Arrest made in connection with 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur
    By Aditi Sangal, Elise Hammond, Adrienne Vogt and Matt Meyer, CNN

    Updated 3:06 PM ET, Fri September 29, 2023

    An arrest was made in Las Vegas in connection with the 1996 murder of rapper Tupac Shakur, a law enforcement source tells CNN.
    • Police arrested Duane Keith Davis, aka "Keffe D" on Friday morning, the source with knowledge of the investigation confirmed.
    • Davis' home in Henderson was searched in July as part of the Las Vegas Metro Police Department’s ongoing investigation into the shooting.
    • Las Vegas police officials are expected to hold a news conference later today, the source said.


    Tupac Shakur's stepbrother calls arrest in connection with rapper's murder "bittersweet"

    The news of an arrest made in Las Vegas in connection with the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur is “bittersweet,” the rapper's stepbrother Mopreme Shakur said.

    “We have been through decades of pain. They have known about this guy, who been running his mouth, for years,” Mopreme Shakur said.

    Police arrested Duane Keith Davis, aka "Keffe D" on Friday morning, a law enforcement source with knowledge of the investigation told CNN. He is a self-proclaimed witness to Shakur’s 1996 fatal shooting, CNN has reported.

    “So why now?” Mopreme Shakur said. “For us, this is not over. We want to know why, and if there were any accomplices.”

    What we know about the man arrested in connection with the death of Tupac Shakur
    From CNN's Cheri Mossburg and Scott Glover

    The man arrested in connection with the 1996 murder of rapper Tupac Shakur was identified as Duane Keith Davis, aka “Keffe D,” a law enforcement source with knowledge of the investigation, told CNN.

    Davis wrote a book about the rapper's killing detailing street gang life and the murder of Shakur.

    Police found a copy of the memoir while searching a house in July that belonged to Paula Clemons who is married to Davis.

    In the book, Davis describes himself as one of only two living witnesses to Shakur’s shooting, the other being Marion "Suge" Knight, former CEO of Death Row Records, who is now serving time in prison for manslaughter in an unrelated case. Knight was driving the car in which Shakur was a passenger when the rapper was shot.

    Davis is believed to be the uncle of Orlando Anderson, who has long been suspected of being involved in Tupac’s murder, a charge he denied to CNN before his death in a gang-related shooting in 1998.

    In a 1998 interview with BET, Davis said he was in the front seat of the other car — the one that came up alongside Shakur’s automobile — when shots rang out from the backseat.

    “Going to keep it for the code of the streets,” Davis said when asked between the four men in the car, who was responsible for pulling the trigger. “It just came from the backseat, bro.”

    Three hours before the shooting, MGM casino surveillance video shows Shakur, Suge Knight and their entourage attacking Anderson, an L.A.-area gang member.

    Keefe D is a dummy. He probably could've gotten away with it. But he started self-snitching by writing books and giving interviews. What an idiot. Enjoy dying in prison...dummy.

    Nah man, it was him. I said hey and he responded with, "Come with me..." then grabbed a football and threw it over the mountains.
