A video shows boxer star Shakur Stevenson standing next to rapper Takeoff moments before Takeoff was shot dead early Tuesday morning in Houston.
The rapper, who was part of the Migos group, was killed outside a bowling alley.
The video appears to show fellow Migos member Quavo, Takeoff’s uncle, in a discussion about basketball. Shortly thereafter, gunshots are heard as a crowd disperses in different directions. It is at the beginning of the video when the boxer is seen next to Takeoff.
