Suspect arrested in 1996 murder of rapper Tupac Shakur

Las Vegas police have arrested someone in connection with the 1996 shooting of Tupac Shakur.

Duane ‘Keefe D’ Davis was taken into custody on Friday morning, though the exact charges remain unclear. He has spoken openly about being at the scene of the drive-by shooting 27 years ago.

A Netflix documentary previously named Davis’ nephew as the shooter, despite the gangster bragging about killing Tupac in September 1996, in books and interviews.

Shakur was shot in a drive-by shooting in Vegas on 7 September, 1996, and died nearly a week later in a hospital at age 25.

The rapper’s death has gone unsolved for decades and been subject to numerous conspiracy theories.
