The Murder of Tupac Shakur
Manage episode 349412427 series 3425174
On September 7, 1996, Tupac was shot four times by an unknown shooter in a white Cadillac on East Flamingo Road in Las Vegas, Nevada. After leaving a Mike Tyson fight at the MGM Grand, Tupac and his Death Row entourage brawled with Southside Crips member Orlando Anderson. The Death Row entourage attended a party at Club 662 later that night. The shooting occurred 15 minutes after leaving the club at a red light. A four door white Cadillac pulled up to the drivers side. The backseat passenger side window went down and shot rang out. Tupac was hit four times and his driver and friend, Suge Knight, was grazed. Tupac was rushed to the hospital, were he died six days later. He was 25 years old. The investigation was hard since no witnesses wanted to tell police what had happened. Over the years, many names have been brought up and many theories have been explored as to who really killed Tupac. The case remains cold to this day. Despite many allegations, after the brawl in the MGM Grand lobby, Orlando Anderson was seen with three others getting out of a white Cadillac at Club 662 before the shooting. It's most likely that Anderson is the one responsible. Anderson was killed two years after Tupac in a gang shooting.
